WWW::Mechanize::Plugin::Snapshot is a Web debugging plugin. It allows you to selectively dump the results of an HTTP request to files that can be displayed in a browser, showing not only the web page at the time of the request, but also

� Arbitrary comment information from the user (as text).
The URL of the request.
� A formatted copy of the HTTP request
� A formatted HTTP response (less the actual content and the request)
� The current contents of the cookie jar
� The actual web page content

The output is displayed in a frame, with the debug information on the left and the actual page HTML as fetched at the time of the snapshot on the right.
