I don't have any control over anything on the target server. The issue is that this is our "parent" company and they don't share with us "peons". This particular page takes an employee ID number and returns a table row with their network userid, email address and first, last and middle name. When people are hired, they are entered into their system first and assigned a userid. We want to be able to query that and use the return data to feed a system to create their AD user accounts automatically (or stage them in a holding table until reviewed and then kicked off).
They won't let us directly query their SQL backend, and their ASP page won't accept inline parameters (like using GET instead of POST, etc.) We're stuck with an HTML form and submit button to retrieve the info. I'm just trying to find a way to automate the process better. Everything for automating the user account creation is in place and ready. The only hold-up is getting the userid value from the empid number.
