  • Extract Forms

     

    Creates a new page that contains only the forms from the current page, with their current values.

     

    Traverses all frames on the current page find the forms, pulls the form and its elements out  into a new page. This breaks on forms that have an element named action, and forms that contain  image elements that are not in the traversal list. 

      Once all the forms are in a new page, it is easy to save that page to a local file to store  the form data, or to manipulate the form before submitting it again.

  • Forms to Homepage GET

     

    Changes forms to submit using the GET method to the home page of the site.

     

    Traverses all frames on the current page searching for forms and sets their  method to GET and their action to /. 

      When a form submits via GET, its arguments are visible in the URL bar allowing  them to be inspected. Changing the action to the homepage also often prevents  a redirect from being issued that would make the arguments disappear.   Unfortunately some sites have a redirect on the home page itself which would  make this ineffective.
