Unfortunately, I've been unable to get very far as I cannot even get a simple GET request to return a response. I've had no problem with GET or POST on our other Linux servers, but this Windows 2000 server won't cooperate with the same code.I tried yours, but no luck. I'm sure that was one of the 20,000 variations I've tried in the last few days. You know, I thought about offering up ice cream as a reward, but I was afraid I'd set a precedent I couldn't keep up with.
