logging into a website using java?

Question

I am working on an Android application. I just started on android development and wanted to know if some how it is possible to log into a website using java. Is there is library or API for achieving something like that?

thanks

That's extremely vague. Which website? Each website has their own set of APIs or expected requests, if they even make them public. If you want to display a website in your app, use a WebView — Jason Robinson

The apache httpclient can make web requests. Using this, you should be able to make your program log into a website.

More information can be found here:

I think I will use PHP for connecting to the database (but that is totally for a different purpose) because I think it would a lot faster!
