str s.getclip("HTML Format")
str ss
if(findrx(s "(?s)(?<=<!--StartFragment-->).+(?=<!--EndFragment-->)" 0 1 ss)<0) ret
lpstr es=curl_escape(ss ss.len); ss=es; curl_free(es)

comments:
(?s) - sets "dot matches newline" option
(?<=x) - preceded by x
(?=y) - followed by y
.+ - 1 or more any characters

Generally, http post string should be urlencoded. But if your server accepts non-urlencoded string, delete the last line.
