Hello vel & list,

I suggest you to use an http proxy like Achilles, then you can edit the
hidden fields. Since HTTP POST requests go in clear text you would easily
locate where those values are modified within the request.

A shortcut is to use the Address input box of your browser and write those
fields just like a GET request. That's because often at the server side
input is accepted no matter the method being used.

Just like this:

/searc/search.asp?serverName=www.abc.com&serverName=www.def.com

cu..
