Paul,
Have you tried the 'Run AppleScript' action in Automator?
I'm wondering if something like this might work for you:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Get Specified URLs
2. Display Webpages
3. Run AppleScript -- and here follows a script utilizing UI scripting
on run
delay 10 -- allowing the web pages to load
tell application "Safari" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Safari"
click the menu item "AutoFill Form" of the menu "Edit" of menu bar 1
end tell
end tell
end run
--------------------------------------
Hope this helps!

Hi all,
I'm new to the list and new to Automator, so forgive me if this is a
silly question...
I want to, at scheduled intervals, open a web page form in Safari,
fill in some unchanging specific data, submit the form, then close
the opened tab. It does not appear to be possible with Automator,
but I would love to be proved wrong. Any help would be greatly
appreciated!
Paul
