Hello.
Can anybody solve this problem?
I need to POST data to a HTTPS login script that doesn't have a
standard "submit" button. The form appears to use javascript to submit
the document via the browser.
<form action='loginScript.cgi' method="post" name="loginForm">
<input name="userid" />
<input name="password" />
<a href="javascript:document.loginForm.submit()" >
<img src="someImage.gif" >
</a>
</form>
I have verified this by
1) disabling javascript in my a browser and replicating the error of
being unable to submit ... and ...
2) creating my own simple form (roughly the same as the above code)
on my own site to submit the data (to the site of interest) without
problem!
Any ideas on how to use perl to submit via this javascript dependent
form?
the only think I can think of is to have perl create and run a
temporary javascript enabled form/webpage and capture the results...
but this would be highly inelegant..
Thanks in advance,
Dave
