If the website relies on javascript, you're going to need to use something like Selenium which will emulate a typical browser and allow you to insert information onto a page and execute javascript commands.

If, however, the search bar simply posts data to a URL. You can determine that URL and then use requests to post the data and retrieve the result.

resp = requests.post('http://website/search', data = {'term':'value'})
