I need to process a HTML form in python. I'm using urllib2 and
HTMLParser to handle the html. There are several steps I need to take
to get to the specific page on the relevant site the first of which is
to log in with a username/password. The html code that processes the
login consists of 2 edit boxes (for User ID and Password) and a Submit
button which uses ASP.net client side validation as follows (formatted
for clarity):

Another approach would be using HTTPDebugger <http://www.softx.org/debugger.html> to see exactly what gets submitted, and then build a compatible Request. On many sites you don't even need to *get* the login page -nor parse it-, just posting the right Request is enough to log in successfully.
