function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

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

    var http = new chilkat.Http();

    // Implements the following CURL command:

    // curl -G https://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg \
    //   -d "api_id=xxxx" \
    //   -d "user=yourUsername" \
    //   -d "password=yourPassword" \
    //   -d "from=yourFromPhoneNumber" \
    //   -d "to=receiverPhoneNumber" \
    //   -d "text=The text of your message"

    // Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
    // Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

    var queryParams = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    queryParams.UpdateString("api_id","xxxx");

    queryParams.UpdateString("password","yourPassword");
    queryParams.UpdateString("from","yourFromPhoneNumber");
    queryParams.UpdateString("to","receiverPhoneNumber");
    queryParams.UpdateString("text","The text of your message");

    // If the following URL does not work, then try "https://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg"
    var resp = new chilkat.HttpResponse();
    success = http.HttpParams("GET","https://platform.clickatell.com/messages/http/send",queryParams,resp);
