I would imagine you'll have endless problems trying to get round 
security issues if you try to script this from inside a web browser.

My suggestion would be to move to another programming language that has 
a HTTP library and try to do the stuff you want from there. It'll 
probably be much easier.

Obviously I recommend Haskell for this task - and, obviously, you're 
going to say no. ;-) That being the case, I'm pretty confident that Perl 
/ Python / Ruby / Tcl / any of those hackish scripting languages will 
have a library that makes this reasonably easy.
