Folks,

I've been looking into using wget to do some web data-collecting for me
(instead of doing it all by hand) and I'm striking out so far.  Can
someone
tell me if these things are do-able via wget (or even some other util), 
and point me at an example?   The tasks I'm trying to do:

1)  Trying to query stock / stock option pricing pages.  Example page:
http://www.csfbdirect.com/cgi/inet/qndigest.trn?selection=option_quote_d
l&symbol=CPQ&filter_type=month&filter_value=JAN-2004
Looks fine from my browser, but running wget, I get all the headers and
the crap on the page, but none of the data.
Any ideas?

2) http://my.zacks.com/screening/custom/custom_index.php3
This page lets you do screenings on various stocks;  when I run it by
hand
via netscape, the results of the screen are put into a frame that I can
save
as a text file;  but I can't come anywhere near figuring out how to do
them
via wget and query various things.  Any ideas on this?

I'm not on the mailing list for wget, so I'd appreciate any help via
cc'ing me
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) on any followups.
