mechanize & field name for search passed as string

Hi,

I am writing a method to perform a similar to the below mentionned
google search but i want it to accept the field's name for the search
entry as a string.

In the following example from the Mechanize docs I would expect it to be
search.send('q') instead of search.q but I get this error

/scrapingGoogle.rb:14: syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting kEND
search.send('q') = 'Hello world'.

Thanks for your comments

********************************************************************

a = WWW::Mechanize.new { |agent|
agent.user_agent_alias = 'Mac Safari'
}

a.get('http://google...) do |page|
search_result = page.form_with(:name => 'f') do |search|
search.q = 'Hello world'
end.submit

search_result.links.each do |link|
puts link.text
end
end

In the example the method which is called is not q(). It's q=3D(), so
if you want so send() then use the right method.

> search.send('q') =3D 'Hello world'.

search.send('q=3D', 'Hello World') or by symbol
search.send(:q=3D, 'Hello World')

He only has himself to blame. There's only so many ways to reasonably
interpret what he said.

I saw Jason Momoa in person a few days ago. He's still not admitting
he's playing Aquaman. And he had a pretty interesting explanation for
the trident picture.

Wait - are you saying that ClodReamer was wrong, or lying?

I'm not going to be able to tell the story right. It started off with
something about his family/culture and mentioning the trident belonged
to his grandfather. The picture was for his grandfather.


From the same convention:

This turned out to be a great convention. I'm looking forward to next
year. Hopefully it will have a much better turnout.
