General Software Discussion / Re: How to easily program/play a "web navigation session"

A macro scripting language is what I am searching for... but I don't know which is the one to use...
I just came across wget and curl, and I am studying them (trying at first to understand the difference...)

General Software Discussion / How to easily program/play a "web navigation session"

« Last post by cettolox on June 06, 2006, 05:52 AM »

Hi,
every day I need to go to a specific site, send my credential, navigate 2 or 3 pages, make some decisions, submitting some forms and then get some results.

I was thinking to automate all the session with a kind of program to "play" a web session and get results, like this:

get_this_page_to_variable a="http://myurl.com", username=stefano, password=stefano
if a contains "to authorize" then
   get_this_page_to_variable b="http://myurl.com/auth_page", var1=val1, var2=val2
endif
get...
post...

I saw that AutoHotKey has the url_download_to_file but it is not enough. I tried java or c# but I did not want a complex programming language or interface.

Does anyone know if there is a tool/scripting language/anything to automate web sessions (maybe keeping track of cookies?)

Bye,

General Review Discussion / Re: Opinions on remote PC control software

« Last post by cettolox on May 23, 2006, 04:43 AM »

I have used a lot of remote control programs, now I stick with www.logmein.com free verson: I control some 30 PC of friends ad it is very simple to setup. Moreover it is the first one that I can use to control a NAT-PROXIED pc from a NAT-PROXIED pc without difficult configurations (server, tunnel, callback, etc.)

And also the performance is acceptable: as good as tight/real/ultra vnc.

Finished Programs / Re: Idea: Static Ip address changer

« Last post by cettolox on February 09, 2006, 03:59 AM »

To set dhcp I have a dhcp.bat file that contains:

netsh -f dhcp.txt

and a dhcp.txt file like this:

# ----------------------------------
# Interface IP Configuration         
# ----------------------------------
pushd interface ip
# Interface IP Configuration for "Local Area Connection"
set address name="Local Area Connection" source=dhcp
set wins name="Local Area Connection" source=dhcp
popd
# End of interface IP configuration

Then for any fixed IP config  eg 192.168.0.10) you can use a fixIP.txt like the following:



# ----------------------------------
# Interface IP Configuration         
# ----------------------------------
pushd interface ip
# Interface IP Configuration for "Local Area Connection"

set address name="Local Area Connection" source=static addr=192.168.10 mask=255.255.255.0
set address name="Local Area Connection" gateway=192.168.1  gwmetric=0
set dns name="Local Area Connection" source=static addr=212.245.255.2
add dns name="Local Area Connection" addr=??.??.??.?? index=2
add dns name="Local Area Connection" addr=??.??.??.?? index=3
set wins name="Local Area Connection" source=static addr=none

popd
# End of interface IP configuration
