Web Automation in Perl/Ksh with NO additional modules

I would like to automate form filling in a remote way... i mean in the background. That form consists of 3 pages (need to be traversed by clicking on a "next" button). Form uses JavaScript as well.

The scripts I have access to are perl/Unix shells [ NOT even Php Smilie ]

I google'd and found that in perl it can be achieved using LWP/UserAgents.pm module. The downside is I am not allowed to install new modules either.

Is there any other way through which I can achieve logon to a intranet site and fill up the form? I presume NO. Still, wanted to confirm with the experienced ones out here!

HTML::FormHandler::Widget::Form::Simple(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation	      HTML::FormHandler::Widget::Form::Simple(3pm)

NAME
HTML::FormHandler::Widget::Form::Simple - widget to render a form with divs VERSION
version 0.40013 SYNOPSIS
Role to apply to form objects to allow rendering. This rendering role is applied to HTML::FormHandler by default. It supports block rendering. (HTML::FormHandler::Blocks, HTML::FormHandler::Widget::Block) Relevant flags: do_form_wrapper - put a wrapper around the form If the wrapper_tag is a 'fieldset' (default if not specified) the wrapper goes inside the form tags (because it's not valid to put it outside of them). If the wrapper_tag is something else, it will go around the form tags. If you're doing one kind of wrapper and want another one, you can achieve that result by using the 'before'/'after' tags or the 'after_start'/'before_end' tags. Supported tags: wrapper_tag -- tag for form wrapper; default 'fieldset' before after after_start before_end messages_wrapper_class -- default 'form_messages' error_class -- default 'error_message' error_message -- message to issue when form contains errors success_class -- default 'success_message' success_message -- message to issue when form was submitted successfully AUTHOR
