title: Wget missing URL and
body: <p>I'm new to Wget. Following online examples, I am trying to log in to a simple page using the following command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>wget --post-data='entry=85482564&amp;submit3=LOGIN' \ --save-cookies=my-cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies \ https://www.abczyx.com
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>SYSTEM_WGETRC = c:/progra~1/wget/etc/wgetrc
  syswgetrc = C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32/etc/wgetrc
  wget: missing URL
  Usage: wget [OPTION]... [URL]...
  
  Try `wget --help' for more options.
  'submit3' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm guessing that it doesn't quite recognize the <code>&amp;</code>, but I am not sure how to fix it. I'm running Windows&nbsp;7 cmd line. A side question, why use "\"? I see some examples with it, and some without it. I get issues with it.</p>
