A way to paste predefined list of text in bash script to browser?

Question

I am looking for a way in bash to paste a few lines (which will be selected in a loop) to a form on a webpage at a certain location (i.e to a specific field on a page). Is this possible? Hope I've made sense

Thanks

Check out curl (http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html). It offers numerous possibilities to access the web through the command line (including POST requests).

Also take a look at What is the cURL command-line syntax to do a POST request?
