    Can you submit data in web forms using a batch file?
    « on: January 28, 2009, 04:54:28 AM »
    Hello,

    Every day when I boot up my computer I have to go into one of our intranet pages and input some stuff.  It's getting a bit tedious.  I was wondering if it's possible to automate the process using a batch file that runs on startup.  Anyone know how I might go about this or whether it's even possible?

    Thanks!

      It's not directly posible with batch but if you have a logon script you could append code that would open a program to do it for you, something like VB or even Firefox/IE.  Though that question would belong in the programming section.

        Thanks for the reply, and sorry, I didn't realise I'd posted in the wrong forum.  Is there another way I might be able to do this or am I stuck with the manual route?
