in reply to Perl for automated web browsing?

I like Win32::IEAutomation too, it is pretty straight forward and simple. I am pretty sure it can handle java also.

    Unfortunately the site I'm using does use Javascript. For example, the login control is Javascript. So I guess Mechanize is out?
      Even with Javascript, it's still just http GET's and POST's between the client and the server. Either read the Javascript and figure out what needs to be sent and/or use something like FireFox's Live HTTP Headers plugin to see what is being sent when you're navigating the site, and then send those requests yourself using WWW::Mech or LWP::UserAgent.
