Automatically Submitting Forms

[Paul Allton]

I have a form and I want to collect some info on it and based on that info I then want to got to a second page and prefill the form elements with that data.  Then I want to submit that form.   The problems: 1) this all needs to happen automatically 2) the second page is an external link and the source code therefore cannot be altered.   Using JSP or a servlet whats the best way to prefill the form and post it? Can it be done?   If it cant be down using Java, can it be done with Javascript, PERL, cgi - anything?
