Let me explain first what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to write a program that automatically posts data to a web form and displays the result. I can use curl to send the data alright, and I can pipe the response from the server and do whatever with it. The thing is, if I put it into a file and ask a browser to display it, relative links and images and other data won't resolve correctly - if it's looking for foo.jpeg, it won't find it on my hard drive. Is there a way to tell the browser, "Display this page as if it were www.foo.com/index.html for the purpose of resolving relative links and images?"
