* Added spike_mechanize_swissreg.rb

Also this attempt works if I specify a trademark name or number. But it does not work, when specifying a timespan for the "Hinterlegungsdatum".
Rechecked the Javascript parameters, but I cannot see the problem.

Therefore I try no to parse the needed information from the page.

I found out that there is either the name or a an image used as the trademark.
Loading the details of a trademark using ids like the following
https://www.swissreg.ch/srclient/faces/jsp/trademark/sr300.jsp?language=en&section=tm&id=343260 # Ohne Bild
https://www.swissreg.ch/srclient/faces/jsp/trademark/sr300.jsp?language=en&section=tm&id=P-328879
takes a long time.

* Encountered problems

Long addresses are not fully displayed, e.g.
343260  Laboratoires Sauter S.A., 46, chemin de l'Etang, Vernier;, adresse pour la correspondance:, Bureau des Marques, case ...

In this case one has to parse the detail html, which is just quite slow.

* Used tools to debug (Addons to firefox)
** Firebug for xpath anaylsis
** installed HttpFox to watch http transfer and verify the content of the post data. Very useful!
