What I want it to do is POST to the program on and take me to the page that results from the information being POSTED. What its doing is GETting the HTML of that page with the fields filled in with the values that I specified. Is this supposed to happen? Shouldn't it be, in effect, filling the fields in and pressing submit for me, taking me to whatever page results in that program being run?
