Chilkat Components

http://www.example-code.com

Chilkat.HttpRequest req = new Chilkat.HttpRequest();
Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

bool success;

//  Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = http.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial");
if (success != true) {
    MessageBox.Show(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Build an HTTP POST Request:
req.UsePost();
req.Path = "/testPostHandler.asp";
req.AddParam("arg1","This is the value for arg1.");
req.AddParam("arg2","This is the value for arg2.");
req.AddParam("arg3","This is the value for arg3.");

//  Send the HTTP POST and get the response.  Note: This is a blocking call.
//  The method does not return until the full HTTP response is received.
string domain;
int port;
bool ssl;
domain = "www.chilkatsoft.com";
port = 80;
ssl = false;
Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = null;
resp = http.SynchronousRequest(domain,port,ssl,req);
if (resp == null ) {
    textBox1.Text += http.LastErrorText + "\r\n";
}
else {
    //  Display the HTML page returned.
    textBox1.Text += resp.BodyStr + "\r\n";
}
