Script to fill browser form

Question

I have little business problem, I need to make a script to fill (not send) out browser forms(only simple textfields, checkboxes and drop downboxes).

I need to launch multiple windows with the same form with different data to speed up form filling

1. What kind of scripting/programming do I need to use to fulfill these needs(Batch, JS .. ) ?
2. I have knowledge only of java, and basic html,c,c++ ... so if I can get basic tutorials I would be grateful indeed.

I have bits of ideas of how this is possible - through IDs of various field on the page which I can access to edit their values, so I just need language specific tutorials/suggestions.

Batch would be preferable if possible, because i need to execute the script through a java swing program.

P.S : If this is of any relevance, only browser acceptable is IE

Answer 1

dont think its possible through Batch,

I think easiest would be javaScript for this task. (chill js is pretty easy)
