Setting parameters via HTTP

[Anon]

I would like to make an interface that makes it possible to set parameters which is usually hidden behind a user/password and a 'thousands clicks'.

There is a form hidden behind some click choices.

How do I get past the user/password setting (I do have the username/pw, of course..)? I've heard og session ID etc, any suggestions how to get this out ?

Do I need to dig into Java for this job ?

If a page is password protected then you cannot get around it.

The only thing you can do is automatically log in by sending the correct headers to the website, waiting for it's response, and ten sending the correct headers to 'post a form'.
