Hi,
I have a database full of people with addresses but I don't have phone
numbers for all of them.
Some of these people are late with their payments. I have made a list of
thes late payers with their address all their payments etc and this list is
diplayed as HTML web page so that my secreatary can call them and reind them
to pay.

My machine produces the web page every night and my secretary can bring it
up in her browser.

As I have the name and the address she could then look them up in the white
pages but this is a drag as she has to copy and paste the data from my web
page into the White Pages web page and then submit the form.

I thought that I could copy (snip) the relevant HTML code from the white
pages web page and paste it into my web page so she could click on my web
page which would have the form already filled in. One forme per customer. In
fact I did this a few years back and it worked quite well. Now it's working
well bad as the White pages page has become quite fancy and is now full of
javascript and flash and Vbs and I can't pin down the relevant snippets that
I need to copy and paste for her to submit as a simple form.

Here is the url of the white pages, "Pages Blanches" as they say here,
http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pb.cgi?
(Yes, the domain is 'pagesjaunes.fr' but the cgi is 'pb' for
'pagesblanches').

and here is the code I'm using
<form action='http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pb.cgi' target='w_content'
name='form' method='post'></p></td></tr>
<tr><td><p Class ='Details'><input type='hidden' name='portail'
value='wanadoo'></p></td></tr>
<tr><td ><p Class ='Details'>Nom &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <input name='FRM_NOM'
size='20' value='Dupont'>
&nbsp; &nbsp; Prenom &nbsp;<input name='FRM_PRENOM' size='20'
value='Jean'></p></td></tr>
<tr><td ><p Class ='Details'>Adresse &nbsp;<input name='FRM_ADRESSE'
size='20' value='25 r Broca'>
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ville &nbsp;<input name='FRM_LOCALITE' size='20'
value='PARIS'></p></td></tr>

<tr><td ><p Class ='Details'>Dept &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<input
name='FRM_DEPARTEMENT' size='20' value='75'>
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<input type='Submit'
name='BF_INSCRIPTIONS_REQ' value='Rechercher'></form>
Could someone check that out and tell me how to get it working again.
Thanks in advance,
Ulrich
