Works a treat. It downloads to my CSD, which is normally my 'Today'
directory, then I get RISC OS to filetype it and launch it into my current
browser.  My obeyfile 'Have_I_Won' is reproduced below:

        wget http://www.nsandi.com/products/pb/haveYouWon.jsp          
        --post-data=holderNumber=36699707W --output-document=HaveIWonResult
        SetType HaveIWonResult html
        Filer_Run HaveIWonResult

and, as noted above, works a treat!

Making it a taskobey file saves pressing Space.

And for any of you curious enough to be wondering how I win so often, I
have a moderately substantial holding as a temporary home for my lump sum.

Thanks!

John
