Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. You might also check out www_tools, a user
library by Joe Armstrong here:
http://www.erlang.org/contrib/www_tools-1.0.tgz

It's not as full-featured for scraping as Scrapi or Mechanize, but
I've used it before for simple tasks, and it wouldn't be difficult to
augment it with further features.
