Make sure the HTML source code contains the correct <form> element: - do not use a browser (or disable JavaScript) - use curl or wget instead download the page - always be aware that the DOM tree in a web browser may look different than that from parsing the bare HTML page - obviously, Dropbox isn't an appropriate host for testing and debugging Good luck!
