# 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.
# The PostUrlEncoded method cannot be used because it parses the URL and puts all the params
# in the HTTP body.  The SynchronousRequest method should instead be used so
# that the req.Path can be explicitly specified.
$url = "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt"

$http = New-Object Chilkat.Http

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

# Create an HTTP request that has two additional params
$req = New-Object Chilkat.HttpRequest

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

# Send the HTTP POST and get the response.
$resp = $http.SynchronousRequest("www.chilkatsoft.com",80,$false,$req)
if ($http.LastMethodSuccess -eq $false) {
    $($http.LastErrorText)
