Comment 14 for bug 2043415

Thanks, that's helpful.

The problem with "clicking the button" is that's very slow requiring three whole roundtrips to setup the browser object. And I am fairly sure looking at the HTML this is implemented using javascript (search the html for submit and you will see its implemented in JS) which means it wont work with mechanize so one would have to reverse engineer the JS to figure out the actual request to send. That's a fair bit of work.
