Submitting an HTML form. - 44krieger - Feb 11, 2016
I am trying to make a small python programm that edits the diffrent inputs of a form and then submits them.
I tried many things using BeautifulSoup and Requests. (Also tried Mechanize, but could not install it properly.)
I could not get anything to work.
Would be awesome if you could make some examples or give me a good reference. I could not find anything that i could understand by googling.
Maybe i am approaching this completly wrong anyway. I am still new to python.
Thanks.

What exactly didn't work? Installation, something Python related, selecting the right form,... ?
If want it super easy I'd have a look at Selenium. It's very easy to use but might be a bit heavyweight if you're going for speed or efficiency at all.
