I am trying to fetch data from [this](http://www.example.com/foo?a=26033) page using wget and curl in PHP. As you can see by using your browser, the default result is 20 items but by setting the GET parameter iip to number x, I can fetch x items, i.e. http:// www.example.com/ foo ?a=26033&b=100

The problem is that the iip parameter only works in browsers. If I try to fetch the last link using wget or curl, only 20 items are returned. Why? Try this at the command-line:

```
curl -O http://www.example.com/foo?a=26033&iip=b
wget http://www.example.com/foo?a=26033&iip=b

```

Why can't I use the GET parameter iip?
