Does anyone know enough about scripting IE to tell me if it's possible

Hi.
Theorically, you can do it, but I've never got it to work properly.
Try the same code with "URL Access Scripting" (a little app within your
scripting additions folder). It should work better than IE's "FormData"...
tell app "URL Access Scripting"
download "
http://www.php.net/search.php"; to (choose file name) form data
"parameter1=value1¶meter2=value2"
end tell
You need "choose file name" to store the server's response, but the rest of
the code is look like IE's structure...
Good luck!
JJ
