Does anyone know of any Java library for programmatic web browsing?

Prowser doesn't cut it because there's no "push the button" method and Watij is limited to Internet Explorer Windows only.

HtmlUnit with all of it's dependencies takes 7.6MB. I guess it's not particularly lightweight.
Only if it loads all of those. The size of the jars does not dictate how big the resultant executable is (leaving aside the actual VM size)
