Programming language working with websites

Question

At the place where I work(as a backup administrator) I am working often with a website where I click out and write out a status report for a certain ticket.
So I thought why couldn't I create a program where I would choose the fields I want to be filled with what I say, in let's say a command prompt or a GUI.
Is there such programming language that can work with a website like filling into fields text and choosing from options on a website?

Answer 1

I'm a bit confused by the question.
Are you looking for a ticketing system like the one you have at work already? Or are you looking to build a website with input forms from scratch? What kind of integration are you looking for? I'm assuming that ticketing system you have at work is proprietary, so you wouldn't be able to go into the program files and change how it works...

Answer 2

If you're talking about hacking someone else's software, I would strongly advise you read the terms of service for the website you are planning to "manipulate" before making a conscious decision to engage in that type of activity (in case it puts you at risk for getting sued). If everything checks out, any general propose programming language could help you out. Python is commonly used.
Otherwise, it may be worthwhile to use a search engine to research auto fill plugins for your browser.

Answer 3

Non of either you mentioned, I am looking for a programming language that can manipulate with a website, so I can just click "Status 1" and it will fill all the fields I need to fill with certain information about status 1 in our ticket website

Answer 4

Dude I am working with that site :D I want to ease up my work, that's why I am bringing every day my mechanical keyboard and optical mouse with my own mouse pad so I can work easily.
I am trying to put some use to my mad programming skillz as well so I can ease up my work even more and automate most things that are possible with minimum fault percentage.

Answer 5

lol, okay. I was definitely picking up you calling it "a website" (three times) and not "my/our website" (at any point). But yeah, if you've got mad programming skills, then you already know all this. Why bother asking?

Answer 6

Who made the website isn't as important as who owns the IP (the terms of the software license that your company has).
It's sounds like your knowledge and skills may be better suited for optimizing the GUI .exe app that no one (else) uses or making changes to the website from the back end (requires server access).
Otherwise, again, an auto-fill plug-in for your web browser might be the simplest way to go. It would likely just be JavaScript injecting HTML.

Answer 7

There is a GUI .exe app but we aren't using it, I don't know who made that site but it responds slowly that's the only issue.
My mad programming skillz are not worth mentioning I just made fun of them. I have knowledge of C/C++, Java and Python but the fundamental concepts not Web based stuff I can do little website with html but that's it.
