You use web_custom_request() to dynamically build the name|value pair data for your request.

Save a copy of your script to a new name. Regenerate the second script as web_custom_requests() only. Look for your label tag of "save" and you should find your web_custom_request() for the request in question.

You would then leverage your tool mechanical skills in correlation to collect all of the name|value pair data from any previous requests and pair them with your foundation skills in C to dynamically build the string that you need to populate the web_custom_request().
