So far I have:<br /><br />input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 61; input keyevent 66<br /><br />Basically 61 is tab which cycles me through the links on the login page until it stops on the "accept" button. 66 is enter which activates the "accept" button. This takes some time to cycle through and since the "accept" button is the last link on the page I would prefer to simulate Shift+Tab and then Enter. It would be much quicker.
