Perl

use LWP::UserAgent qw();
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $netloc = 'http://www.buddhism-dict.net/cgi-bin/xpr-dealt.pl:80';
$ua->credentials(
   $netloc,
   'CJK-E and Buddhist Dictionaries', # basic realm
   'guest',  # user
   '',       # empty pw
);
my $response = $ua->get($netloc);

use WWW::Mechanize qw();
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new;
$mech->get('https://login.yahoo.com/');
$mech->submit_form(with_fields => {
    login         => 'XXXXXX',
    passwd        => 'YYYYYY',
    '.persistent' => 'y',  # tick checkbox
});

Python

Works with: Python version 2.4 and 2.6

Note: You should install mechanize to run code below. Visit: http://wwwsearch.sourceforge.net/mechanize/

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from mechanize import Browser

USER_AGENT = "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; tr-TR; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071102 Pardus/2007 Firefox/2.0.0.9"

br = Browser()
br.addheaders = [("User-agent", USER_AGENT)]

# remove comment if you get debug output
# br.set_debug_redirects(True)
# br.set_debug_responses(True)
# br.set_debug_http(True)

br.open("https://www.facebook.com")

br.select_form("loginform")
br['email'] = "xxxxxxx@xxxxx.com"
br['pass'] = "xxxxxxxxx"
br['persistent'] = ["1"]

response = br.submit()
print response.read()

Tcl

Uses the Tls package. <lang Tcl>package require http package require tls http::register https 443 ::tls::socket

1. Generate the authentication

set user theUser set pass thePassword dict set auth Authenticate "Basic [binary encode base64 ${user}:${pass}]"

1. Make a secure authenticated connection

set token [http::geturl https://secure.example.com/ -headers $auth]

1. Now as for conventional use of the “http” package

set data [http::data $token] http::cleanup $token</lang>
