I do not even know how to search for this so I am going to describe what I am looking for.

A scrapper goes to a site and grabs content and returns it to the user. I need something like that only it goes to a site and fills out a form or any input that allows text.

So it would be like, I press a button and it goes logs in to my twitter and posts a message based on the input I gave it. Or logs in into my email and sends a message out.

Basically I give some kind of input, it goes to a website logs in and fills things out. Is there such a tool available? What is that even called? I can code in PHP but I haven't even wrapped my mind around how this should work.
 


You don't have to deal with the actual forms just the headers that the form is sending. Get LiveHTTPHeaders and mastery of cURL takes 20 minutes.
 
This limited rep system is slightly annoying.

Thanks to both of you now I have something to hunt down.

I will rep when its available :party-smiley-004:
 
+1 for php or imacros FF plugin,

check out Rage9's blog for some good tutorials.
 
You can try Gator, it is an automated form filler and can fill in all the necessary details that you have entered
 
Well as said before you can use a variety of methods. Depending on your level of knowledge. This can be acomplished in C++, C#, VB.Net, VB6, Java, PHP+CURL, Imacros, UBot.

Are you looking to do this yourself or get someone to do it for you?

I don't know your background in programming, but a quick google search would be the best solution to find tutorials are code snippets in your desired language.

For .Net languages do a google search for httpwebrequest / response (This is the winsock version No webbrowser control needed) or DOM Manipulation (this would require you to add a webbrowser control to your form.

For php+Curl do a search for web scrapping with php+Curl. There are tons of examples for nearly every language you can think of.

If you are looking for someone to do this for you then may need to post in the buy/sell/trade section of possibly create a post asking for some free assistance (not sure how well the second post would work but worth a try).
