Converting form submissions into URLsBy Will Bontrager Converting form submissions into URLsSome form submissions can be converted into clickable links or bookmark URLs. Such a link/URL can be created if the form can use method="GET". If the form is method="POST" you can still give it a try. It might work anyway. Some software will accept form submissions with either method. The link/URL would he the URL of the form action, followed by a question mark, followed by name=value sets delimited with ampersands. Example: <form method="GET" action="http://example.com/script.cgi"> <input name="email"> <input name="code"> </form> That URL would be http://example.com/script.cgi?email="name@isp.com&code=MyCode Put in the correct values for email and code and you're good to go — maybe. If the URL contains illegal characters (like a space), those characters will need to be converted into a "%" character followed by the 2-digit hex value of the character. (%20 for a space character.)
