There used to be a perl module called Mechanize (iirc). I know there was
a killer little python class to do this as well, but I dont recall what it
was called. I posted it to this list before when someone asked the same
question. Unfortunately the archives here are not convienently accessible
or searchable. :(
Depending on what you are trying to accomplish you might look at expect or
the python equivalen pexpect.
