Did you send the parameters "starttime", "edittime" and
"token", should
be taken from the edit page (I do that via regular expressions)? You can
also check what error message you get (print the HTML you get from
"action=submit" to a file and search for an error message) and handle it
– it may be an edit conflict message or the evil message about the edit
token.

L.S.,
I'm currently trying to create a bot that can automatically
post forms to mediawiki. I've managed to do following:
* Log in to mediawiki.
* Get a page (using the Special:Export option).
Now I want to submit a page, but somehow that
doesn't work. Does anyone have experience with creating
a bot for mediawiki that can edit pages via http/forms?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Hans Oesterholt-Dijkema
