Hello there,
I am new to python, and shell scriping in general..I have done quite a
bit of php, but that it about it. Anyhow, I am wondering if it would be
possible to write a python script that would login to a password
enabled site (qmailadmin) and then be able to add a new account. I
imagine it could be done by accessing the website and then it would
send POSTs to the website? If this makes no sense, I apologize, just
wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks ahead
of time!

Spend some time perusing this code: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Coo.../Recipe/302930
It helped me with a similar problem. I'm not sure if it works for https.
If the form is using POST to "hide" the login, just suck the web page
and change POST to GET. Then use your sucked webpage and submit your
login from it. You will then see the fields (separated by "+"s and the
values, separated from the fields by "="s). Use the fields and values to
populate the "txdata" dictionary in the example using urllib.urlencod e
(an example is in the discussion).

You should use urllib2 to fetch URLs. See : http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/a.../urllib2.shtml
urllib2 will also allow you to do POST.
How you handle the password depends on whether it is by a form, or by
basic authentication. For basic authentication see : http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/a...tication.shtml
If it is through a form, you can use ClientForm. Alternatively just
manually do the POST from urllib2. You may want to use
ClientCookie/cookielib for (automatic) cookie handling : http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/a...ookielib.shtml
All the best,

Hi guys,
Im about to build a script which will log visitor time spent on my website.
I got a few ideas about this, maybe checking visitors ip and storing that
info in db with time in and then using session vars to check time out ...
Anyone has any ideas about doing that kind of script?
Thank you!

Hi,
I'm trying to create a perl script that will log into a website (the login

from those pages to a seperate log file. I'm not very familiar with this aspect
of perl, and have been having some trouble in the POSTing of the form data,
while using cookies to log in.

I'm about to add some logging calls to a library I have. How can I
prevent that the script that uses the library prints
'No handlers could be found for logger "comtypes.client"' when the
script runs?
I would like to setup the logging so that there is no logging when
nothing is configured, and no warning messages are printed.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
