curl is much better than wget for this. Though they may have added POST support recently, many versions of wget don't have post capabilities and others don't do https. Curl does all these. Use curl --trace to get a trace of both the server and the client output for debugging your scripts.
You can use wget, and maybe curl, for a lot of this. IIRC, they have support for forms (GET and POST), cookies, SSL, etc., and can easily be made to do what you want. Other things you could possibly try are lynx, links, w3m, or other text based browsers.
