Hi, Ya its kind of user filling out a form and sending request. Steps are like this. 1. I need to submit my sequence in webserver ( like filling out a form in web) 2. Then I have to give a request for format sequence(available in the link: http://mfold.rna.albany.edu/?q=mfold/RNA-Folding-Form ) 3. Then further steps downloading the output..
