Can you input email and password to a URL?

nesredep egrob

I have a URL that I intend to load into startup via a shortcut. I need
to have input of email address and password for it not to become a
pest at every startup.

When that is input manually I get a HTML which contains my DNS.
Incidentally that would be nice to have that displayed on the screen.

Both email and password come as
<td><img SRC="/homeparts/login_email.gif" WIDTH="67" HEIGHT="11"
BORDER="0" ALT="Email"></td>

The following line is the one that accepts the input as
<td><input TYPE="text" NAME="username" VALUE="" CLASS="login_box"
SIZE="25">

The question is: Can it be done. The problem is for an elderly chap
accustomed to C and C++ to be able to understand how. So some help
which will make C , Java or Javascript make it do that and possibly
pick off the DNS from the next screen, PLEASE

As I understand it, you have to log-on to some internet service or
something before you can use your internet, and you would like to skip
the login form?

What you can do it view the source of the document you normally would
have to submit (containing the input-fields for your e-mail address and
password), and get the following information:

The values of ACTION and METHOD in the FORM tag
The names of the fields it sends
(usually 'username' and 'password',
but might contain some hidden fields.)

You need to create a form in a html document with the same parameters.

Then locally open your editor and write a HTML document containing the
following code and replace all the values for the correct ones (if they
are not):

<HTML>
<BODY onLoad="document.getElementById('myForm').submit() ;">

<FORM ID="myForm" ACTION="the action" METHOD="the method">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="username" VALUE="your username (or e-mail)">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="password" VALUE="your password">

</FORM>

</BODY></HTML>

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Good luck,
Vincent
