Hi!
GET should be equal to POST in a simple request. So,
the way is the same...
A quick example to translate a phrase using Google ('n
URL Access Scripting) via POST:
set remote_app to
"
http://translate.google.com/translate_t";
tell application "URL Access Scripting"
activate
download remote_app to (choose file name) replacing
yes form data
"text=eres+una+persona+con+orejas&langpair=es|en" with
progress
end tell
Hope this helps!
