Thanks everyone. The links will come in handy. I should explain,
I want my software to fill in a form on a page which is not under my
control.
So running a server side script is not an option. I was looking more
towards
interpreting the page somehow and then filling in the fields. As I
know
the structure of the page (i.e. they are fairly static) it may be
possible.
One worry though is the log in aspect, I suspect it will log me out
all the time unless I handle cookies etc. And then there's the
javascript...
Anyway you gave me some good pointers, thanks.
