title: Crafting a direct URL to some data built on ASP.NET
body: <p>Is it possible to craft a URL to some data for a site that uses asp.net? Below are some (altered) headers for the page. It is a page I use at work and loads very slowly. I would like to be able to craft a url for each person I need to look up, so that I can quickly and conveniently access the necessary data without having to navigate manually (and batch download the data, say every morning, so that I don't have to keep opening to the terribly slow webpage). Is this even possible without knowing __EVENTVALIDATION and __VIEWSTATE ? Or is there some way to determine these and craft them with the URL? Current searches have yielded nothing useful.
  I want to end up with a list of urls like:
  <a href="http://www.website.com/dir/DesktopDefault.aspx?...stuff...&amp;name=burgundy,%20ron" rel="nofollow">http://www.website.com/dir/DesktopDefault.aspx?...stuff...&amp;name=burgundy,%20ron</a>
  <a href="http://www.website.com/dir/DesktopDefault.aspx?...stuff...&amp;name=smith,%20jon" rel="nofollow">http://www.website.com/dir/DesktopDefault.aspx?...stuff...&amp;name=smith,%20jon</a>
  ...</p>
