Submit form and print page with python requests

Question

I have been reading a lot on how to submit a form with python and then read and scrap the obtained page. However I do not manage to do it in the specific form I am filling. My code returns the html of the form page. Here is my code :

import requests 

values = {}
values['archive'] = "1"
values['descripteur[]'] = ["mc82", "mc84"]
values['typeavis[]'] = ["10","6","7","8","9"]
values['dateparutionmin'] = "01/01/2015"
values['dateparutionmax'] = "31/12/2015"
req = requests.post('https://www.boamp.fr/avis/archives', data=values)
print req.text

Any suggestion appreciated.

req.text looks like :

You may post data to a wrong page. I access the url and post one, then i found the post data is sent to https://www.boamp.fr/avis/liste . (sometime fiddler is useful to figure out the process)

So your code should be this

req = requests.post('https://www.boamp.fr/avis/liste', data=values)
