Reading a file and populating part of a web form

Post by JeffC » Wed Oct 06, 2010 6:13 pm

We would like to populate specific fields from a web form with data that
will exist in a file somewhere on the user's computer (similar to what
Roboform does but the data is generated on the fly).

More specifically we want to create a script that would run when the user
hits a function key.
It would prompt for a patient id number.
It would then execute a program (already written) that would generate
patient demographic data and place it in a specific directory.

[this much is done]

Now we want to parse that data, take about 10 fields from that file and
automatically fill out the web form (that is already open).

Has anyone done this or can you help us develop this? The need is
immediate.

You can email me directly or reply to this forum.
jcaspariremovethis@labhealth.com

Note: we would be willing to pay someone to set this up for us.

Thanks very much!
