Hi I have been using mechanize and python to try and upload a file to a website, so far Ive been succesfull but im stuck at the upload page. I know mechanize does not work with JavaScript but I was wondering if anyone knows a way that I could pass a file directory to the form to upload it, any help will be greatly appreciated.

<script language="JavaScript" src="ABIjava.js"></script>

<body vlink="Blue">

    <form name="frmValues" id="frmValues" method="post" action="FileUpload/Default.aspx?cache=5%2F19%2F2011+5%3A02%3A22+PM&LoadID=txtUploadedFileID&LoadNM=">
        <input type="hidden" name="UserType" id="UserType" value="P" />
        <input type="hidden" name="username" id="username" value="69297" />

    </form>

    <script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('frmValues').submit();</script>

    Mechanize handles file uploads to forms like this:

    form.add_file(open("NAME/LOCATION OF FILE"), "MIME TYPE", "NAME OF FILE")

    br.form.add_file(open("file.txt"), "text/plain", "file.txt")
