Question Need a login script

As I am no script writer I would like to get a simple script going for ssh login.

normally I just type ssh -p myport myserver.mydomain.com

and enter username and password.

Is there anyway to automate this, my main issue is automatically providing the password.

Thanks

why don't you look into ssh-agent?

I recommend learning to write scripts. I have learned more form this than form any other source.
Good (free) publication: "Bash guide for Beginners", by Machtelt Garrels. It is on the Linux Documentation Project site.

Cheers, certainly want to get familiar with writing scripts, and php, and this and that.

Lack of time makes you search for quick fixes I'm afraid
