I don't have a clue... I guess your concern is that the browser itself wouldn't let me sneak on the input a user types and submits...?

If this is the case, is there a workaround?

The app I need to write should open a browser and navigate the user to a web page. There, the user must create an account by entering username and password. The web page itself will inform them of the success or failure of the account creation.

Then, I must ask the user to re-type the (approved) username and password in my perl-tk application window. What I try to do is avoid the case that the user enters the wrong credentials in my application. (this is why I want to have the ones from the browser so that I can cross-check and inform them in the case of an error)...
