Hi pm
I had the same requirement, just with a press of a button, I need my
inbox(all the login etc should be automated)
I wrote the following script. (You may have to install the
Win32::GuiTest module from cpan. (also change YOURLOGIN and YOURPASSWORD
appropriately).
With this you don't have to worry about constructing the query string.
use Win32::GuiTest qw(:ALL);
system("start iexplore.exe");
sleep(3); # this delay for the window
# to comeup - try to increase
#if it is not sufficient
SendKeys('^(l)');
SendKeys('http://mail.yahoo.com{ENTER}');
sleep(15); # This delay is to load the
#page - try to increase if it is not sufficient
SendKeys('YOURLOGIN{TAB}');
SendKeys('YOURPASSWORD{ENTER}');
Thanks
Prasanna

Subject: constructing a http request using LWP..
Hi there,
is it possible to automate the login and log out say from yahoo mail
using
LWP/HTTP module.
cause
i have application which is similar to this and i have to send my login
request alongwith few query parameters . after i login i will be logged
in
to my applications mail box. how can i do this..i know which query
parameters to send but not able to construct the url.
the query parameters are
site=xyz.abc.com
lang=en
locale=us
and few more..which are static.
but there is something called random number which is hidden one and
which is
generated randomly.
if i do view source on the login page then i can get the value of this
random number.
my query is how do i get this random number from my perl script and pass
it
as query param. any idea will be helpful.
thanks in advance,
pm
