This form is for file upload. I do not believe this can be automated with lynx.
You cannot POST using -post_data to a file upload form AFAIK. The server is
expecting a filename, and then a file it can write out, which isn't implemented
(yet).
The file could be sent in -post_data if -post_data could be amended to read in
a file to send: -post_file_with_data, maybe? RFC1867 shows that the post
elements get stacked one after the other separated by Content-type: and
content-disposition: headers, boundaries, the data, and CRLFs.

Hi
I tried what you said I cannot get it to work, this is what I have been
doing.
I have a file called b which contains the following
MerchantID=bar&Password=foo&FileType=CSVCC&File=FDGMETROIN
1898110805
So I did
Cat b | lynx -post_date
https://clearance.commsecure.com.au/cgi-bin/FileUploader -
I get the following :
CommSecure FileUpload Declined
This upload was declined because: Problem header
"['FDGMETROIN1898110805']" had wrong number of fields. parsing file
Please contact our helpdesk on 02 9497 4400 for help if it is unclear
what is going wrong.
[1]Please try again?
