Last year I was trying to extend some of Sean Burke's DOM stuff with a primitive pure perl JavaScript parser and classes to mimic JS objects. It's difficult and I didn't get far before running out of time and putting it aside. Probably the right avenue is this sort of approach, http://search.cpan.org/dist/JavaScript/JavaScript.pod (riding on top of one of the two open source JS engines) + an HTML DOM parser.

It would be sweet and widely beneficial if it ever happened (Google might even pay for it if it isn't too late for the summer of code thing). I enjoy playing with this stuff, and still would be if I had time, but it's a little out of my league. I humbly entreat one of my betters to give it a go.

Is there a way to get Mech to handle javascript?  Has anyone been able
to do this?  Anyone working on it?  Or have I missed something?

No.  No.  Theoretically.  No.
