Mechanize retrieve headers

[Robert Garrido]

Hi all,

I'm using mechanize for web inspection, when I get a URL I get a refresh
URL in the headers:

<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="2;url=/html/Splash.action?splash="/>\

When I ask to mechanize to list the metadata I do this:

pp $page.meta

I get:

[#<Mechanize:age::Meta
""
"http://localhost/html/Splash.action?splash=">]

How can I cleanly retrieve the refresh URL?

Thanks!

The Mechanize docs follow the ruby tradition: they suck. So I would
just use a regex to get that tag from the html of the page.
