HTTP POST.

[ParoXsitiC]

I am trying to do an HTTP POST but I believe I am doing somehting wrong. I used HTTP Analyzer V2 to sniff out all data to be posted to a website, however I can not seem to get anything to work. It keeps saying I am using "GET" and not POST, but microsoft said doing it this way will post.

Based on these 3 sites:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311293/EN-US/ http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....ds/navigate.asp

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/165298/EN-US/

Maybe I am doing something wrong? I know 99.99% percent sure the POST data is correct. I was able to emulate a POST using external software, I used the same POST data and headers.

#include <IE.au3>
#include <Inet.au3>

$Header = "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" 
$FormURL = "http://www.imvu.com/catalog/web_registration.php"
    $o_IE = _IECreate ("about:blank",1,1)
    $o_IE.navigate ("http://www.imvu.com/catalog/web_registration.php?action=register", 0, 0, 0, $Header)
    _IELoadWait ($o_IE)
    $HTML = _IEBodyReadHTML ($o_IE)
    $Code = StringRegExp($HTML, "thecode"", '(.*?)', ""ENTRY_HUMANCHECK_ERROR", 3)
    If @extended Then 
        $RandomName = GenerateRandomName()
        $PostData = "action=process&avatarname=" & $RandomName & "&password=default123&confirmation=default123&tagline=Heyyyy%21+I%27ll+fill+this+out+later+%3A%29&email_address=paroxsitic%2B" & $RandomName & "@gmail.com&dob_month=06&dob_day=04&dob_year=1985&country=223_MI&thecode=" & $Code[0] & "&userId=227598"
        $o_IE.navigate($FormURL, 0, 0, $PostData ,$Header)
    EndIf

Func GenerateRandomName()
    Local $Let1 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let2 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let3 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let4 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let5 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let6 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Local $Let7 = Chr(Random(Asc("a"), Asc("z"), 1))
    Return $Let1 & Random(1, 9, 1) & Random(1, 9, 1) & $Let2 & $Let3 & Random(1, 9, 1) & $Let4 & $Let5 & $Let6 & Random(1, 9, 1) & Random(1, 9, 1) & $Let7
EndFunc

A more simple example:

http://www.tizag.com/phpT/examples/formexample.php

#include <IE.au3>

$Header = "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" 
$FormURL = "http://www.tizag.com/phpT/examples/formexample.php"
$o_IE = _IECreate ("about:blank",0,1)
$PostData = "Fname=fdf&Lname=cxzczc&gender=Male&food%5B%5D=Steak&food%5B%5D=Pizza&quote=Enter+your+favoriteccc+quote%21&education=College&TofD=Day&submit=submit"
$o_IE.navigate($FormURL, 0, 0, $PostData ,$Header)

Tommorrow I'll try using InternetOpen, InternetConnect, and HTTPRequest instead of navigate and see if that helps any.

Hmmm.. im also trying to post queries into php files but im to lazy to create a script..

If u manage to create one could you send a copy to me ?

and i have also made a script that searches a html/php file for queries and returns what commands you can post in the php/html file.. but.. i lost it somewhere :S

Actually it does matter weather it is a get or post unless the php uses request.

In php:

$_POST is the post data

$_GET is the get data

$_Request is from either one
