Auto Fill Web Forms

Hi,
I've spent days on the net (Google/MSDN etc) trying to find a way to
fill in web forms from my Delphi application. I don't want to buy
ready-made code or an existing application as I want to learn how to
do this myself.

Basically I want my Delphi app to open a browser window (via
ShellExecute?) and automatically fill in a form or pop-up form that
the browser displays.

I guess the tasks are to

1/ Find the topmost window of the application my app starts
2/ Enumerate all the controls
3/ Fill in the appropriate controls

The trouble is that I don't know my way round Windows very well at
this level (Delphi's been too good at making this unnecessary over the
years for me!).

Anybody got any pointers for 1 and 2 (but especially 2)?

Many thanks!
