Hi folks;
I know that I�ve seen this asked before and no one seems to have an answer:
I would like my program to go to a web page, populate some data fields on a 
form,
then send it off to the server which does a database search, and returns 
results.
I�ve done the �google� thing, but I must not have the terminology right.
I�ve searched for,�filling out(in) a web form programmatically...�
Is there a better name for this process. One that I can search for which
won�t assume that I want to apply for a job?<g>
The two pages that I would like to deal with are:
http://sd.ic.gc.ca/pls/eng_alpha/web_search.geographical_input
And
http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/genmen/lat_long_freq.hts

Many thanks for the assist,
Drew
