Hi all,

 

Recently I have found myself repeating a very monotonous task on amazon's kindle direct publishing website and (being the kinda guy I am), I figured I could probably automate it without too much trouble. I'm a publisher who needs to maintain my library of lots of books and ensure that any offers are kept up-to-date.

 

I have made screen scrapes before without too much problem, but filling in forms is a little bit more difficult. There are no CAPCHA images to enter and this is specific to my own login so I don't think I can be considered "evil", so all I want to know is how to automate my own login, click a specific link and fill in forms.

 

Ideally I want it as easy as recording a macro, or maybe just a list of instructions.

 

If I told a human to do it, I'd just say "go to this page and click on that, enter these details to login, then click that" and I wondered if there is something out there in cyber world that allows me to do the same?

 

Thanks,

Neil
