interacting with websites from Matlab

Is it possible to enter data into forms on a website, click "send", and retrieve resulting data, all from a Matlab script? Specifically, I'd like to enter hex color values into this site, and get the values it returns.

Use the 'post' or 'get' method inside or urlread

Is there a way urlread can work with a php site?

A more recent verion is related to the HTTP Interface of matlab. This interface provides functionality to issue properly structured HTTP requests and process their responses.

Could you write a solution using the HTTP Interface? I am struggling to use them to do something similar with another website.
