get data after html POST

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 27.2007

Hello everyone, ?

I’m trying to write a script that itself posts requests to a script on a server (using html method post), and read the result back in (to extract some data from it).
Is this possible?? And if so, how?

To be more detailed:
here [url]http://www.febiac.be/public/technicar.aspx?lang=NL[/url] you can make a selection and after clicking ‘zoeken’ the inputvalues are processed and the results are show.
Can this be done from a script? Without manually clicking the submit?

Thanks in advance!

Bobby

first of all you need to learn something about HTTP Protocol and then something about PHP Sockets.

@SheldonMay 28.2007 — So, you want to output the post data that the customer has submitted?

[code=php]
<?php
//example
$name = $_POST['name'];
echo($name);
// Would output where is entered in the text field "name"
?>[/code]

Can't you provide some ready-to-use code please? :rolleyes: A simple script. I can't find one on the web.

Cheers

@redhatlookMay 28.2007 — Bobby ?, just click on the PHP Sockets link there are many examples, moreover there is a section called examples ? but in fact better is, if you understand what exactly your script does, so that is the reason why i suggested you HTTP Protocol link too ? If you have a concrete question feel free to ask ?

@Bobby_SauthorJun 06.2007 — Hello,

Sorry, I don't get it working. I can grab the resulting page of a post submit request ?

Here is the cleaned html page to submit a request. Can you have a look and give me a hand?
[code=html]<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<body>
<form name="Form1" method="post" action="http://www.febiac.be/public/technicar.aspx?lang=NL" id="Form1">
<input type="hidden" name="__EVENTTARGET" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="__EVENTARGUMENT" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="" />
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
var theform;
if (window.navigator.appName.toLowerCase().indexOf("microsoft") > -1) {
theform = document.Form1;
}
else {
theform = document.forms["Form1"];
}
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget.split("$").join(":");
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
theform.submit();
}
// -->

@Bobby_SauthorJun 06.2007 — PS.

<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="" />

-> this seems to need a value, but it's very very long so I could not post it here. But if you want it you can get it -> http://www.febiac.be/public/technicar.aspx?lang=NL

Success!
