    <p>I will attempt a shot at this. Firstly, as per the HTML form code snippet posted, the form performs POST action to a GET URL <code>https://www.myebill.com/index.asp?nam</code>. You may want to confirm once again that this is the URL you indeed want to POST to.</p> <p>Having said that, urllib2 already supports an HTTPSHandler. There is a related Stack Overflow discussion on how to access web services over using Python <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5082128/how-do-i-authenticate-a-urllib2-script-in-order-to-access-https-web-services-fro">here</a>. While, this is not directly related to the query - the answer to this question contains good pointers about what care should be taken when we are attempting to logon using HTTPS via a program. Most specifically, it is the setting of the <strong>Referer</strong> tag within the header. This is necessary, since secure websites use this mechanism to protect themselves from a CSRF attack.</p> <p>The below code snipet shows the <strong>most important</strong> settings that you would need to put in place prior to making a request. I got this from the <a href="http://nullege.com/codes/show/src@s@i@simpledropbox-0.2.2@simpledropbox@__init__.py/105/urllib2.HTTPSHandler/python" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Nullege Python for Simple Dropbox Login</a></p> <pre><code>handlers = [ urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=debug), urllib2.HTTPSHandler(debuglevel=debug), urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cookiejar), ] opener = urllib2.build_opener(*handlers) urllib2.install_opener(opener) #the opener will be used for all urlopen requests from now on. </code></pre> <p>Note the use of the HTTPSHandler.</p> <p>You then fill in the authentication information:</p> <pre><code>payload = urllib.urlencode({'username' : username, 'j_password' : password}) </code></pre> <p>and then perform a login:</p> <pre><code>headers['Referer'] = self.urlbase #note the presence of the "Referer' header req = urllib2.Request(url=self.urlbase+'login', data=data, headers=headers) cookiejar.add_cookie_header(req) page = urllib2.urlopen(req) pdata = page.read() </code></pre> <p>I hope this gives you an idea on how to go about..</p>

    1. COThanks for posting an answer, @Prahalad! I used your sources and the code you posted to create a new script. The new script isn't logging in, but I think it's close. Please see my **edited** question for details.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
