 |
|
Hi all,
Sorry for such a rookie question, but I have been requested do make a
"AutoWebPage Filler" (guess I can call it that) for 2 of my clients. It
has to open the webpage, fill the fields, press the button on the
webpage and get a specific result from the page (an authorization
number), everything being in a framed webpage. And, they don't even want
to see the page, so it'll seem a "hidden process" to them .
The problem is, how can I do that? I don't have the slightest idea. The
only stuff that I have done as web has been with Intraweb, so I can be
considered web-dummy with this kind of stuff. I remember a guy in a
company that I was doing a job doing something like that with php4delphi
IIRC, but he isn't with the said company anymore.
Any pointers? Directions? Examples? Please? Double Please?
Thanks a buch for any answers.

Use the TIdHTTP component. Its Get() and Post() methods can submit
HTML form data. You don't even need to download the original page, if
you know ahead of time the HTML field names.
