Well, that actual button clicking can't be done with Rev, but you can simulate it by passing the parameters with the url string that would normally be sent when you click the button in a ' get url ' call. For example, suppose I had a simple form on a web page for name and email address with a "submit" button. When the submit button is clicked, it sends that data to the CGI on the server (let's say it's "www.123.com/cgi-bin/testcgi"). I could simulate the submit button for the person "Test" with email address "test@test.com" like this: put urlEncode("Test") into tName put urlEncode("test@test.com") into tEmail get url("http://www.123.com/cgi-bin/testcgi?" & tName & "&" & tEmail) --> now "it" contains the source of the page that would be displayed after the submit button was pressed Hope this helps...
