Has anyone thought of using/modifying a text editor (or word processor!) to send HTTP request statements?

Yeah, prominent examples being microsoft and adobe. http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/overview5.html I didn't find the right link for word, but www.yet2.com has a word file online which you can presumably (I don't have word) use to submit your information online after filling it out offline. Btw, http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/2002/articles/oPlanForNewBaby.aspx wtf is that? Oh my I tried adobe's solution a little bit, and it works well. One should know that these capablities can be used for really privacy intruding things. It's possible to create hidden forms on a pdf-page which submit on pageview in acrobat, really scary. cheers, oliver
