[REBOL] Re: Newbie: Trouble filling a form using "http-post.r"

From: cybarite:sympatico:ca at: 8-Jun-2002 8:13

Matthew, I looked into my cached copy of http-post.r which is what I have that is reading the alta-vista site. It was not working because the alta vista site has changed since it was written. The url is different and the formatting of the results are different. This is one of the challenges of reading a user interface screen for data. If you save this html content as a file on your machine: html><head><title>Basic Babel</title></head> <body bgcolor=linen> <form action="http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr" method=get> <textarea rows="6" wrap=virtual cols="38" style="width:400" name="urltext"
>This is a test</textarea>
<input type="hidden" name="enc" value="utf8"><br> <input type="hidden" name="lp" value="en_de"><br> <input type="Submit" value="Translate"> <input type="hidden" name=tt value="urltext"> </td> </form> </body></html> and submit it through your browser you will see a result page from the translation. Then you can see what you have to change the example to. I will look at the Rogers example later ... much later.
