[Tutor] using pythnn to open a password protected website

[richard west]

Hi,

Im trying to use python to open up a password protected website(e.g.
facebook / gmail) in Firefox. supplying the login and password automatically
at runtime - so that I can interface my code with fingerprint recognition
code. So far I have only found urllib, urllib2 and web browser, none of
which I have been able to use.

urllib2 can log me in, but then I cant pass this authenicated login to the
browser. At the very least I need to be able to send the form post
information to the browser via my code, and preferably auto-submit the form.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Many Thanks,

Richard.
