Hi,
I got a problem at had which i'd like to solve. I'm a newbie to linux, and i'm just beggining to experiment with lynx browser (no not for my primary web browsing purposes
). Basically what i am trying to achieve is: i need to make 2 concecutive calls to 2 different webpages, each of which is being protected by basic http authentication (well first a get request to my routers web interface to change the username and password, and secound is a get request to another web page which saves the config resets the router).
The way i'm trying to achieve it at the moment is via a shell script and lynx web browser. At the moment i have something along those lines:
Code:
lynx -auth=admin:passowrd -get_data {... long url encoded string ...}--- {url of the page}
lynx -auth=admin:password {url of the reset page - not get data present}
One problem i'm seeming to have is that after the first request lynx loads the page and then remains (open?) on that page. So i guess my question is (actually i got two):
1) Is there any way to just make these calls and nothing else? So i just want the data to be sent, but i don't want to see the browser as such.
2)

-get_data user data for get forms, read from stdin, terminated by '---' on a line

, so just to clarify my unserstanding: the way i use it is "-get_data test=asdf&test2=wert---"?
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Kind regards,
