Dear Monks,
I am trying to write a robot script to submit a web form. Here are the important parts of the form - actual URL is https://rostlab.org/services/nlsdb/:
<textarea class="form-control" name="input-data" id="input-data" rows=
+"15"></textarea>



                <div class="btn-group-lg">
                    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-l
+g" id="submit-seq" name="query-seq" value="SFssO806NA96rvTzMiLyoQ" da
+ta-toggle="tooltip" title="Search one or more protein sequence(s) for
+ NES/NLS. Protein sequences must be provided in FASTA format.">Find N
+ES/NLS in protein sequence (FASTA)</button>
                    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-l
+g" id="submit-ac" name="query-ac" value="SFssO806NA96rvTzMiLyoQ" data
+-toggle="tooltip" title="Search one or more protein sequence(s) for N
+ES/NLS. Protein sequences must be provided by their UniProt AC.">Find
+ NES/NLS in protein sequence (UniProt AC)</button>
                    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-l
+g" id="submit-sig1" name="query-sig1" value="SFssO806NA96rvTzMiLyoQ" 
+data-toggle="tooltip" title="Search NLSdb for all NES/NLS sequences s

                    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-l

I am interested in (i) pasting 1 sequence in the textarea an (ii) submitting using the "Find NES/NLS in protein sequence (FASTA)" option.
I have written this, but it does not work:

I think I am not getting the submit button right, is  "query-seq" => on the correct syntax?
