Im currently trying to input values to a page through mechanize , but there are two date fields like

    <td align="center"><script>DateInput('startDate', true, 'YYYY-MM-DD')</script> </td>

from the source "calendarDateInput.js"

How can i input my own values to this through mechanize?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Is this data posted in HTTP request or it's handled only by JavaScript? – 4d4c Feb 10 '14 at 13:14
it is handled only by Javascript – user3291718 Feb 11 '14 at 10:03
Then mechanize can't do this. Use selenium – 4d4c Feb 11 '14 at 17:36

There are a lot of tutorial on this, take a look at similar question [1](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15903034/python-submit-post-data-using-mechanize) or [2](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4720470/using-python-and-mechanize-to-submit-form-data-and-authenticate) – 4d4c Feb 18 '14 at 16:52
