The way this page works is you access index.asp?SerialNo=abc123 from a
link, that is re-directed to a frameset containing the main page,
main.asp, just that. main.asp does not have any <input> fields showing
the SerialNo, there is a comment with it but that is all. Fom this
page, you input some dates and submit, and the form action is on a page
like /checkthis.asp. What I can't see is how /checkthis.asp knows the
SerialNo, which it needs. Is there some other way that asp pages
transfer information between pages? I looked at the cache for IE after
each page load and it does not have SerialNo as cookies or any cookies
from this site other than google conversion tracking.
On main.asp the button that submits the form does not refer to the
SerialNo either. Nevertheless the results page creates the relevant
data from the database. But it does produce error messages like, The
Object has been Moved here, with my site plus
?lngSessionId=234984987&SerialNo=abd123&WinMode=&AgentCode=&CustCode=.
If I add these parameters to the target URL in the CURL script it looks
for displaymode (the message with my url in the display line at end of
browser window: www.mysite.com/displaymode=).

My current theory on this is that the initial input page creates a
per-session cookie. Is CURL able to send this when the page is
submitted and if so how do I find out the name and value of the cookie
as per my reading it is not stored on the computer, though I reckon it
must be there somewhere.
The initial page is in this format:
https://www.targetsite.com/subdir/page.asp?serialno=GM201&OtherCode=&NextCode=
So I have various GET parameters.
The initial input page also has POST parameters which I can see the in
page source, and so send via CURL.
I cannot find any javascript doing a set_cookie, including in any
included files of which there are none anyway. But there is some
session going on as the serialno parameter is not in a hidden field or
explicitly set cookie, so it must be a per-session cookie maybe with a
different name, I reason. How do I find out about these?

My code is as below. It comes back with 'Bad session variable name -
CompanySerialNo' from the site.but the COOKIEJAR does not show this
variable name and it is not sent, it just shows:
www.targetsite.com FALSE / FALSE 0
ASPSESSIONIDQCSQDTAB LKAONANAFJPNMFFECLFNCLBP
There is a serialno but that is sent in the GET (URL below).
Question is: What to test now? I am trying to get a results page
from an input page.
What code below is trying to do is access the page, get any cookies
set then try the page again with the relevant inputs.
