Python &[b]#34[/b]; input type &[b]#34[/b]; data input - Un-Identified - Jan 29, 2014
Okay for example, I know that sending php post data is done through urllib2,
resp = urllib2.urlopen('example.com/contactform.php', "message="whatever"&submit=send)
but if a website didn't use post data, then how would I select, for example: " input type=textbox id=message " and input the given data..

If a website doesn't use POST data then I would assume they are using get data. So in the event of that:
resp = urllib2.urlopen('example.com/contactform.php?message=' + var1 + '&subject=' + var2,)

I don't think that's quite how you send POST data, but the alternative is the GET method. see this

It's not using get or post methods, I don't believe so.. it's written in HTML5.. There's no sign of post or get methods, so that's why I need python to pretty much select the textbox through ID given and enter data given.

Run it through Live HTTP Headers and post the result.
Just block out the site if it's important.
