Hello, thanks for the help... I have a bookmark with keyword to this site: http://dle.rae.es/?w=%s for example http://dle.rae.es/?w=dicho

As you can see, there is a dropdown menu, and I would like to make a new bookmark for the dropdown selection "exacta" which leads directly to http://dle.rae.es/?id=DgXmXNM ... I have tried http://dle.rae.es/&formList=30&w=%s for example http://dle.rae.es/&formList=30&w=dicho which does not work correctly (the error always redirects to default "diccionario" page http://dle.rae.es/?w=diccionario)

I think you're close.

The form calls a script in the background which uses a URL in this form:

http://dle.rae.es/srv/search?w=dicho&m=30

The exacta is m=30

So try this:

http://dle.rae.es/?w=%s&m=30
