Question

i think i am going a bit crazy, when i test this on my local webserver, it works fine when i go out to the live website, it returns a blank string instead of the data i am e

It really depends what you are trying to do... I'm not sure, for example, why you are url-encoding data in the body. An easier way to post key/value pairs is with UploadValues;

NameValueCollection inputs = new NameValueCollection();
string value = ...
inputs.Add("data", value);
webClient.UploadValues(address, inputs);
