Submit webform via URL only?

Sometimes servers conflate GET and POST parameters, as in PHP $_REQUEST hash. However, normally they are separate - and a server that expects its parameters in multipart/form-data might not look at URL at all. In such a case, as it seems to be here, you have to construct a POST request. On the client side you can do it through AJAX or through constructing and posting a form; on the server side, you can use curl, or a library. You did not say what you want to use it for (and where you want to use it), so you just get the general answer, I'm afraid.

EDIT: Here is the JavaScript semi-solution. You have to already be on some page (i.e. can't use it on _blank), and I'm not sure if it works on all browsers.

javascript:d=document;f=d.createElement("form");h=d.createElement("input");f.setAttribute("method","post");f.setAttribute("enctype","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");f.setAttribute("action","http://www.torec.net/ssearch.asp");h.setAttribute("type","hidden");h.setAttribute("name","search");h.setAttribute("value","query");f.appendChild(h);d.body.appendChild(f);f.submit();
