Yes the idea it to actually make the post with the browser. Kudos for the effort, but I can't count wget, telnet (I think), and ones that don't work (Amaya on Kubuntu kept crashing on me). Glad to see the interest though, and of course just because it doesn't officially count doesn't mean you can't post it!

And according to HowStuffWorks' consumer auto guide 2908 lbs, didn't say if that was the V6 version though.

And I haven't done one for a while: Mozilla 1.7, Kubuntu:

First one I've used in a while that worked with the image upload.

I'll try to make a post from telnet tonight. Will take a bit more effort, cos i need to research how to POST all the stuff and the names for the various vars needed. Not to mention the username cookie.

Mosaic if I remember correctly only supports HTTP 1.0, so it won't work with sites that require a name instead of an ip to identify them.
