I've tried this in the past using requests and or selenium, as I recall requests was good a filling in the forms and selenium was okay and mimicking a browser but I haven't found a good tool to do both and I don't believe I can make them share a connection variable/object.

I finally got it running headless!

I'm new to Beautiful Soup, when preforming a search for buttons/text fields should I be searching via html 'id' or 'name'? Thanks.
