Default Copy and paste from ie to excel using macro

<form action="/search/search.asp" method="POST" name="theForm"

you're referring to this?

I'm thinking that it's POST. What now?

Do a view-source and find the "<form..." tag: is the "method" GET or POST?
Default (if none stated) is GET.
If it uses GET you should be able to see your search terms in the browser
address bar.

I'm trying to copy information from internet explorer into excel.

There's a
lot of info on different pages so I was wondering if this was possible?

Basically the website has a search function. I have all the searches I

need
in excel right now. Right now I'm copying the search item into the

search
window and then hitting enter then copying a description of the item and

then
copying that into excel. Then I'm going back to the search bar and

entering
another search item.

Does this make sense? Is there a way to write this as a macro? I'm
familiar with making macros but I've always stayed within excel.

Thanks for any help
