    Hi.

    I am trying to be able to access email using Girder. (I have a TV Out connected to my TV and would like to be able to do basic email reading)

    I would like to be able to do the following -:
    Run IE5 on mail.yahoo.com (Easy)

    Enter userid and password and submit
    Seems very unpredictable, targeting the input boxes seems very hit and miss. When it did get close to working, it missed the underscore '_' and seems unreliable? Which features would you use for this? I use the send keyboard strings)

    Be able to tab (and multiple tab) and enter on the mail screen. (Haven't tried this yet) any pointers?

    I haven't tried this, but i would suggest using keyboard and mouse commands for this, because targetting is nearly impossible on a HTML form.
