Thanks. About as I figured. No export to Perl, either.
I installed WWW::Selenium and the selenium jar file. The jar file is
running with no problems. Like so, at least for now:
java -jar ./selenium-server-standalone-2.52.0.jar
I excerpted the sample program at the head of the WWW::Selenium
documentation. That works, except the wait_for_page_to_load times out
even though I can see the loaded page staring me in the face.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use WWW::Selenium;
my $sel = WWW::Selenium->new( host => "localhost",
port => 4444,
browser => "*firefox",
browser_url => "http://www.google.com";,
);
$sel->start;
$sel->open("http://www.google.com";);
$sel->type("q", "hello world");
$sel->click("btnG");
$sel->wait_for_page_to_load(50000);
print $sel->get_title;
$sel->stop;
