Hi Team,

I have a requirement to login into URL using username and password , then I have to select a "particular name" from drop-down menu and then Read the values user records etc.... using perl.

Is it possible to do in perl script ? (OR) Can you please let me know which scripting languange is best to do this requirement ?

Thanks in advance ....

I guess you have PERL pretending to be a human plus a browser. Drop down lists can be presented in several ways, and the PERL programmer can parse the web pages as text to find the lists, but the PERL programmer probably has to know all the ways the lists may be presented in HTML and ECMA-Script to write the parser. I am not sure anyone wrote a virtual PERL browser to do the parsing for you.
