I am trying to crawl a site using mechanize.
The site provides search results in different pages.
When posting to get the next set of results, something is wrong and the server redirects me to the first page, asking mechanize to update the SearchSession Cookie.
I have been debugging the requests using Firefox and they look quite the same,
and I am unable to find the problem. Any suggestion? Below the requests:
