Re: how to open a web page and logon?

Is it possible to script something to open a web page and logon? The web
page I want to open places the cursor in the userID box by default. I'd
need something to enter the userID + <tab> + password + <tab> + <enter>. I
have to open the page many times per day and its a nuisance to type all
this in every time.

thanks

Use a script file to launch your browser, then send it the
required keystrokes like so:
Set ws=CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
ws.sendkeys("{Home}")
wScript.Sleep(500)
ws.sendkeys("LJB{Tab}")
wScript.Sleep(500)
ws.sendkeys("password{Enter}")
wScript.Sleep(500)
