* This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* Imagine a URL that contains two params: one named "xyz" and one named "name".
* We want to send a POST to it, but with 2 additional params in the body of the request.
lcUrl = "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt"

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

* Provide a session log path so we can visually verify the exact request sent.
* (This is only for debugging purposes.)
loHttp.SessionLogFilename = "c:/temp/httpLog.txt"

* Create an HTTP request that has two additional params
loReq = CreateObject('Chilkat.HttpRequest')

loReq.HttpVerb = "POST"
loReq.Path = "/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt"
loReq.AddParam("sport","tennis")
loReq.AddParam("tournament","French Open")

* Send the HTTP POST and get the response.
