It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 54665
interpreted = N
texte = :-\  You've got me curious.  I've never seen a difference between the functioning of a GET or POST except that you either use a hyperlink or a form.
Oh, maybe your receiving script only recognizes a POST.  That must be it.

Matt - That works (sortof). though it is not posting the data. It returnsthe same results as if I we passing the data as a GET. I need to POST it.Thanks----- Original Message ----- From: "WebDna @" <webdna@inkblotmedia.com>To: "WebDNA Talk" <WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com>Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 11:03 AMSubject: Re: TCP Connect/send and CGI

If your on *nix curl is a great tool, it can handle sending andrecieving cookies and much more.Very powerful tool.that said your syntax is wrong should be something like:[TCPConnect host=aa.usno.navy.mil][TCPSend]POSTcgi-bin/aa_altazw?FFX=2&obj=10&xxy=2003&xxm=3&xxd=4&xxi=10&place=&xx0=-1&xx1=118&xx2=14&yy0=1&yy1=34&yy2=03&zz1=8&zz0=-1&ZZZ=END[UnURL]%0D%0A%0D%0A[/UnURL][/TCPSend][/TCPConnect]But you may need to work it a little different.
