Making POST work with URL's

2004-03-06 Thread Rob Beynon 

Hi All,

I'm having a devil of a job retrieving data from a web site usinf the
POST command. Here's some example coding

put empty into card field SVG
ask Swiss-Prot accession number with P01308
post it to URL http://au.expasy.org/cgi-bin/get-sprot-entry?;
put it into card field SVG
break


This doesn't seem to assemble properly, so that I get entry P01308 not
available (it is).

Any thoughts?

I'd appreciate a direct response to this one, as I'm working on a
deadline ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

All best wishes,
Rob

Rob, don't you need a variable=value parameter to the POST?

Meaning, doesn't it need something like number=P01308 instead of
P01308?

Just thinking...
