1. Sending "click" to online form

I have a machine at work that keeps track of its uptime, downtime, efficiency, etc. and is able to export that information as a .csv or .xls file through a web server interface.
The user needs to browse to the data export page and click on the "submit" button.
I'm looking for a way to do this programmatically. I'd like to click on something like a shortcut, have the page open and have the "click" command sent to the "submit" button.

You can do this without a web page and without user interaction at all. You can run a program that at certain intervals, or when meeting some other criteria, simply submits the data to the URL for you. I had to do this to interface with a credit card processing company and it works fine. Check the link for more info.
