if you're asking specifically about jsp, keep in mind what the jsp rules are for whatever you're doing

if you're asking in general how to do it, then it depends on what you want. in the Track Topic example, it makes a GET request with the specific topic id to bring you to another page, then makes a POST request after you select your days and notes. the easiest way for this kind of thing would be to simply submit POST data with your own program. you will do it this way for anything that has forms that are submitted.

this will cut the user interaction and submit the form. if on the other hand you have a pure javascript call, eg press a button and all your user controls float around in a cool pattern or a popup comes up, then this will not work. if you want to actually click the button on your screen, then i'd suggest looking at greasemonkey scripts.

i find that python's mechanize was very easy to use. you can also use other virtual browsers, i'm sure java has one.
