Temporarily change the method from POST to GET and the browser will dump
the lot into the address line for you like magic, provided there are not
so many form elements as to blow the string limit for a GET.

Subject: (OT) Submit string

 Hi all,

I was wondering if it was possible to somehow "trap" the submit string
of a web form.

The things is we have a web based application that I have to access
fairly often. I would really like to simply script the whole things and
"submit" using curl. But for this I need to know how those form
parameters are parsed and sent to the server.

Is that possible?

TIA

Michel
