Hi,

I'm trying to write a php script to open an external web page. Fill
in a form. Submit the form. And then retrieve the data.

For example, From my script, I'm looking to open up a google mail, log
into google mail, and then retrieve some data. I'm not looking to
parse stuff on my own site.

Are there any scripts already out there that can help me do this?

Thanks,

enter

Yeah, there's plenty of spamming scripts out there for the script kiddies (:

Hi,

You can do such things with CURL.
Start learning here: http://www.php.net/curl
