NAME
WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date - Fill a timestamp into an HTML form field
SYNOPSIS
use WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller; use WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date; my $f = WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller->new(); # Create a random value for the HTML field "born" my $born = WWW::Mechanize::FormFiller::Value::Random::Date->new( born => string => '%Y%m%d', min => '20000101', max => '20373112' ); $f->add_value( born => $born ); # Alternatively take the following shorthand, which adds the # field to the list as well : # If there is no password, put a random one out of the list there my $last_here = $f->add_filler( last_here => Random::Date => string => '%H%M%S', min => '000000', max => 'now');
DESCRIPTION
This class provides a way to write a randomly chosen value into a HTML field. new NAME, %ARGS Creates a new value which will correspond to the HTML field "NAME". The allowed %ARGS are string => POSIX strftime string min => minimum time stamp (inclusive) max => maximum time stamp (exclusive) The "min" and "max" time stamps must be in the same format as the "string" supplies. WARNING The algorithm to implement "min" and "max" barriers is very simplicistic - it tries as many random values as necessary to meet the two criteria. This means that your script may enter an infinite loop if the criteria can never be attained or are too little apart. name [NEWNAME] Gets and sets the name of the HTML field this value corresponds to. value FIELD Returns the value to put into the HTML field. EXPORT None by default. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. Copyright (C) 2002,2003 Max Maischein
