Getting Web Page Info into Filemaker [Somewhat OFF]

Hi all,

This is a bit off topic, but not really (OK this is my justification...).

I want to get some data mined from the internet into Filemaker. I feel comfortable parsing the HTML myself but the problem I am having is this...

I need a way to automate entering a form and pressing a button to get the data I need. Now, I tried using cURL, but there is no way to get the data to post the web page that I know of because the page is an active server page, so I can't see the POST data. You just see the same .asp request going to the page but the page changes to find that person etc.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any Macintosh software that automates entering web forms and pressing the submit button similar to software available on Windows like Newbie and iMacros.

Thanks a bunch, and sorry for the semi-offtopic post!

Darryl
