best set of modules for web automation without javascript

[News123]

Hi,


I'd like to do some web automation with python 2.5
- https:
- a cookiejar
- some forms to be filled in


what is the best set of modules.

As far as I understood, there is httplib, but it seems (if I understood
well) to be incoompatible with cookielib

I'm a newcomer to webautomation with python and would be thankful for
good suggestions.


I used so far perl with LWP::UserAgent HTTP::Cookies and some module (I
forgot the name) to handle parsing and filling in Forms.

thanks in advance for any pointers opinions
