In fact speed here isn't of paramount importance and I would be more than
happy to just be able to simple copy the contents of a Safari or IE webpage
and paste it into FileMaker using AS. Combined with what I have already set
up for the group within FileMaker this will already shorten what has been
until now a very tedious task by over 95%! So if you or anyone has a
suggestion as to how to do that or if one can use cookies in a shell script
as you mention and you could help me get started with that, I would be very
grateful for advice in either or both directions!

If you need to use the browser because of cookies, then you can still do what you want easily.

Actually, curl can handle cookies as well by using the -b flag. See "man curl" for details. If the web site requires a specific agent, curl can disguise itself as any browser too.
