Hi Jamal,
Slightly educated guess here. I would do manual searches and look at my web
browser's address bar to see what it says, then code based on what I see.

Jim,
I've been meaning to thank you for your post below, and to ask how one can
figure out what parameters need to be passed to a post request in order to
automate a web form in a particular way. How did you figure out what was
needed on those web sites?
Can you or others give general tips for this kind of scripting?
Jamal

Hi Jamal,
I wrote a Python script that can query Yahoo Babelfish or Google
Translate.
I can post it if you are interested.
