How to get full URL with options?

[Master Razor]

For instance, http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx , which lets you select your options and press Search. I would like to get the full URL that fills in those options automatically and sends me directly to download. Is there some easy way to do this?

Thank you!

A grease monkey script ? Maybe :)

No, Lucius. I mean after I complete all fields and click search, I'd like to copy the exact URL that sends me to the next page.

Sometimes you can do this by changing the form method from POST to GET, but not here. JavaScript functions GetDriver() and getDriverURL() are in charge of parsing the form input and redirecting you to the driver download. An XMLHttpRequest to processDriver.aspx is made, and it returns which URL you should be taken to.

The good news is that you can just sniff that request, and then reuse it for as long as your required hardware, OS and language are the same. A little scripting could parse the output and open your browser or create a bookmark that automatically redirects.

@echo off
rem GeForce 6 Series / Windows XP / US English
for /f "usebackq" %%x in (`wget "http://www.nvidia.com/Download/processDriver.aspx?psid=3&pfid=31&rpf=1&osid=6&lid=1&lang=en-us&ctk=0" ^
-U "" --header="X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest" --referer="http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx" ^
--header="Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, max-age=0" --header="Pragma: no-cache" --header="Connection: close" -q -O -`) do set url=%%x
echo %url% | findstr "driverResults.aspx/" > nul
if "%errorlevel%"=="0" (
	start "" "C:\path\to\browser\firefox.exe" %url%
	goto end
) else (
	echo Error obtaining download address.
)
:end

OK.. but how do i sniff the request?
For instance, how do I create this?

http://www.nvidia.com/Download/processDriver.aspx?psid=3&pfid=31&rpf=1&osid=6&lid =1&lang=en-us&ctk=0

Well, I used SmartSniff because I already had it installed and it was faster for me, but there's also the developer console present in all major browsers.
