Filling in fields in a form in an external browser

Hi there,

I am looking for a way to open a website in an external browser window (Firefox or Safari) and tell Filemaker to fill in one or more fields in this website. Unfortunately, it is not as easy as in other cases.

The URL doesn’t show anything about the things that went into the website’s fields. So, something like „http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s“ & Company::StockSymbol won’t help.

(The website I’m talking about is www.genios.de and the appropriate field is DB-Name oder Kürzel on the left side.)

Your help is highly appreciated.

☺ Mike
