automatic browsing

[Patrick Algera]

I downloaded the simple browser example from the NI-site and it works perfectly.
To solve a certain communication problem, I want to be able to automatically
browse to an URL and fill in an username and a password on this URL, automatically
too. Is this possible?
I can't use VI server or datasocket, because there is a firewall blocking
all communication except internet communication through port 80. Using port
80 with VI server doesn't work either, so it's a very secure firewall. So
that's why i'm now trying to communicate using a freediskspace account.
Does anybody maybe know another solution to this communication problem?
regards,

I don't think this is possible thru VI Server. The challenge here is to detect the textboxes on the web form (for username and password) and then putting the mouse cursor in those boxes before sending data thru labVIEW. You are using the ActiveX control to view the webpages in labview (i know the example you are using). webpage gets downloaded on the browser activeX control but there is no way (i think) to figure out the objects on the webpage and then getting reference to textbox before inserting text in it.
