If I have this right you are wanting a whole HTTP
conversation between the client and server?
The main question really is what does the Website
actually do with the info?
If as below it writes to a database can you not request
direct access to the database?
I have a script which effectively talks HTTP
(will simulate cookies as well), but it is very cutomised to an internal
website (I was not allowed direct access to the dbase which it
used).
So what happens is that the webserver response to the
intial GET/POST requesting some for of credentials and then simply GET/POST
the details back.
This should then (if successful) return a 302 or
200 ok response.... which obviously needs to be dealt with. I did it this
way because I can, rather than because it was the easiest method, an easier way
is to automate the internet explorer com object using _vbscript_. This saves
you from the messy parsing of server responses and concentrating on what you
need to achieve.
There are lots of ways that you can do this.
These are just a couple of examples.

Richard, I've done something like that.
In my case, the HTTP POST sends the id of the object (the server being
monitored) to an ASP page.
The ASP code queries a database and retrieves a record based on
the id received.
This record points to the phone and e-mail address of the tech support
responsible for the object. The code then sends an alert email to an
commercial email-to-SMS gateway to deliver the SMS message.
Let me know if you need more info.

I've searched the web archives and the manual, and there is a great POST
feature to check a web page. I would like to use it in a slightly different
way. I want to send an alert to a web-based CGI script. The CGI script takes
a message and phone number as input and sends a text message directly to a
phone. If I e-mail the phone address, I only receive a message indicating I
have a message, then I have to reply to read the actual message. (I don't
want so-called direct mail to keep costs down).
Is it possible using Servers Alive directly? Or is anyone aware of a command
line Windows binary which can post to a web script? (Sort of the opposite of
wget) My search to that end has also come up empty.
