Google for "PostToHost and Rasmus Lerdorf" if you want to use PHP to send
POST data (IE, to "forge" filling in a FORM)

You can also use JavaScript to create a FORM, I think, and then fill in
all the stuff, and then 'submit' it, if you trust JavaScript to work right
and want to learn JavaScript enough to get it working...

You can also make your FORMs use METHOD="GET" to send the data as $_GET
instead of $_POST

I'm not sure if any of these address what you really want to know, but
they may help.
