Hello,

I want to make a program which will be able to take a string from a website and also click on the websites links and other buttons.I want these things to be automatic but not using the mouse so that it can run on the background.
I want from people you have knowledge on this, to point me on some programming language, a guide or anything that could send me to the right direction.If the program can be made using a widely used language i prefer to learn this than a less used.

Thanks in advance.

Do you understand what clicking a link does?
Programming is a branch of mathematics.

You can use PHP+cURL and Regular Expressions to to take a string from another website. These type of bots are called "scrapers" because they scrape content from other sites.

As for clicking a link, you could do this in just about any application language. C# comes to mind using the Internet Explorer component.
