To set this up, paste the code below into the "location" of a bookmark. Make sure it starts with "javascript:", some browsers strip this out when you paste.

1. Find the "name" of each form element you want to put data into. You can find the "name" by right clicking on the form box and "inspecting" it.
2. By using a spreadsheet, create a set of urls with the data you want to input. Example: variablename1 is the "name" of the form field. "value1" is the value you want to put into the box.www.website.com/page.html?variablename1=value1&variablename2=value23. Navigate to that custom URL4. Click the bookmarklet. Voila!

Params to Form Input

javascript: function getUrlVars() {
    var vars = [],
        hash;
    var hashes = window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');
    for (var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++) {
        hash = hashes[i].split('=');
        vars.push(hash[0]);
        vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];
    }
    return vars;
}
function ParamsIntoForms(get) {
    for (var i = 0; i < get.length; i++) {
        if (document.getElementsByName(get[i]).length != 0) {
            document.getElementsByName(get[i])[0].value = decodeURIComponent(get[get[i]]);
        }
    }
    return false;
}
var get = getUrlVars();
ParamsIntoForms(get);

Thanks. This is useful.
It did not work for me when there were reserved characters in the element name.

! | # | $ | & | ' | ( | ) | * | + | , | / | : | ; | = | ? | @ | [ | ]
%21 | %23 | %24 | %26 | %27 | %28 | %29 | %2A | %2B | %2C | %2F | %3A | %3B | %3D | %3F | %40 | %5B | %5D

I had to change it like this:
....

            dcd=decodeURIComponent(get[i]);
            if (document.getElementsByName(dcd).length != 0) {
                document.getElementsByName(dcd)[0].value = decodeURIComponent(get[get[i]]);
               //also I fire an onchange event of the changed element as the form i need to fill requires it
                document.getElementsByName(dcd)[0].onchange();

            }
.
```...

Thanks
