Hi
Is it possible to automate tasks performed in a web browser on a dynamic 
homepage using python. For example fill in forms and retrive outputs, sort of 
like an macro or something.

I have some tasks at work which involves boring "clicking around" in a browser 
(a PDM system), waiting for windows to appear, writing some text in a form 
and then click OK.... write down the output on  a piece of paper to remeber 
it... add that output to another box.... 
Unfortunatly there is no possiblity to "redesign" the PDMsystem/webbpage to 
make it easier... so it must be done from the clients.

Yes i think you get the picture.

Regards Klas
