Scraping a site which uses POST method
Hi all,
First all i have to say i am new to scraping technology.
I want to scrape a website which is using POST method for variables
[url]http://shopping.sify.com/shopping/index.php[/url]
And i dont know how to scrape..
I have downloaded the Screen-scraper. And gone through the tutorials, I have scraped the screen-scraper/shop site too as guided in the tutorial 3.
But, now i am in a hurry to finish my task (Scrape the shopping.sify.com site)
Even though, i am not clear now, i am in confusion..
Can you help me to do that please..
Thank you for your response..
And help me to finish my task..
Thanks and regards,
Alex

Some more details
The problem i am facing is,
the url, for each product in last response tab looks like.
[b]http://shopping.sify.com/All_Categories/~@product_name@~.html[/b]
in example, its like,
[i]http://www.screen-scraper.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=8[/i]
i suppose they are using seperate html files for each product. so i cant see the data records when i pressed "Apply pattern to last Scraped data".
Its showing "datset is empty" window.
I think, i made some mistake here.
Please correct me, how to move further..
What i have to do..
