Re: [Tutor] Firstrade Authentication: Form Management
Kent hi
I am still unable to enter data into textbox and getting back server reply. The
main problem is that I do not understand which fileds / header to observer
using Firefox Fireburg. Atteched you can see headers I went through. With red
font I marked differences among stages. In nider of the headers I didn't find
fieldds you included in your workable login code.
Questions:
1.) Could you send print screens of what you are using in Firefox Fireburg
2.) In case I am using the currect headres, I would appreciate you mark on the
attached document with pink font important fields to be included in the code in
order to be able to get data from server.
3.) The most usefull (the quickest to understand and re-use) would be if you
coud make workable code to get server reply for XSNX stock ticker(on screen top
left corner: field Symbol - enter XSNX). Once I would see this I would be able
to adjust other searches by myselves. This would be realy usefull knowledge. At
the moment I am able to do web control with iMacro only. I would like to switch
to Python!

Side where stock to enter stock Symbole:

Workable login code:
(The code open main side on which stock symbol can be entered. The question is
how to what fields form header to be used and how to put this in the code.
Headers can be seen in the attached word file)

urllib2.install_opener(opener)
f = opener.open('https://investor.firstrade.com/firstrade/login.do')

Two important Sub-QUESTIONS:
1.) Look attached word file. It describes form fields I would like to fill
in
and read server resoult..
You just have to mimic what the browser does. Use a Firefox plugin
that shows you what is being submitted; TamperData is one. Then set
the same fields in your code.
2.) Could you do the same login logic also with MECHANIZE plagin. There
are
some very usefull function in this plagin I might use. However I have
No, I'm not familiar with mechanize.

Re: [Tutor] Firstrade Authentication: Form Management
I have tried but I recived error. Look attached files: FormManagementCode (my

additional trick to fully master form management ..

[Tutor] Developing Macro: Is it possible in Python?
Hi Is it possible to do macro with Python? Macro should be able to click on given x,y screen location (one click, double click), drag scroll bar up / down etc.. Macro should be also able to extract data from predefined screen x,y location. I would use this to control desktop windows based program. The program is written from external provider - not Microsoft or me (it runs on xp environment).. Above actions can be easily performed using Macro Scheduler. I am looking for possibility to do the same with Python? Is there any other way beside macro to control windows based application? The best will be to be able to control application from background (the same time mouse and screen would be free for other work. No flashing on screen. In ideal program would be ran as beck - hiden process..) Cheers, Fedo http://www.email.si/ ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] Firstrade URL Authentication?
Hi Kent
Thanks for your reply. According to your instruction I have tried in Python
interactive window the following (in my test I have used real username and
password):
import urllib2
import urllib
opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor())
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
params = urllib.urlencode(dict(username='user', password='pass'))
f = opener.open('https://investor.firstrade.com/firstrade/login.do', params)
data = f.read()
f.close()
f = opener.open('https://investor.firstrade.com/firstrade/mainmenu.do')
data = f.read()
print(data)
It printed out login page which means I wasn't able to login to the main page.
There must be some sofisticated trick to login to www.Firstrade.com. Any Idea
what else can I try?
Cheers, Fedo

Hi ..
I have to admit that Python is really surprising me. It was lucky day a

weeks ago I firts time start using Python. Lot's of things realy can be
done
with short learning curve. Your user guieds was best place to start!
Below is problem I am unable to solve. I would appreciate your advice or
even better code sample. The problem is URL authorisation.
