 I am looking for help with web clipping.

I have a URL that has a search box, and once the search box is submitted, results are returned.

The URL does not take parameters, even after the results are returned, it's just blablabla.aspx.

Is there a way to submit parameters with the directinvoke to get the resulting page which can be clipped?

Thanks much

Hi,

1. Using firebug or any other HTTP snooping software in browser,  identify the URL being sent  upon submitting search. Subsequently,  this URL can be used to simulate this search  submission  using directinvoke.

2. igoogle.emml   has a  sample of web-clipping with directinvoke.  In the sample, cookies are used  to maintain authentication states  when needed to clip pages with authentication requirements.

hth.
