如何使用curl提交jsf表单

Question

I am new to Java and JSF,

I was looking for some way to send a query term to toysrus.co.uk

I have already worked on php curl and I can handle it at my own, and I have coded my function which sends query term...

My issue is I am unable to create the query term and and I cant find a way to create a url in which I can add my query parameter so that I can curl this page.....

can somebody guide me how I can create the search url for toysrus.co.uk

what I want is, I will add my parameter in URL and the curl script will send this request to the site and I will get the searched product...

I want something like

http://www.toysrus.co.uk/index.jsf?seach=MYTERM

this is just an example what I want...

can somebody help me create the search URL for the said web site? being totally new to JSF, I am unable to do it...

also, when I googled on JSF and tried searching for helping material, I found not enough stuff on JSF

thanks for help..

Answer 1

You should be able to search the site just by changing the search term in the URL query string.

I went to the main page and typed "seriously" into the search box. Here's the address it sent me to:

http://www.toysrus.co.uk/index.jsf?fh_eds=%3f&fh_view_size=10&fh_start_index=0&fh_location=%2f%2ftrus%2fen_GB%2fcategories%3C%7btrus_trus%7d%2fitemtype%3dproduct%2f%24s%3dseriously&media=web

See where the search term shows up there? You can change that to any other word and it will search for that. Want to search for multiple terms, or a phrase? Try typing them into the search box and see how they're encoded in the URL. You can probably also remove or change some of those other parameters if you experiment with it.
