' 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.
Dim url As String
url = "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt"

Dim http As New ChilkatHttp

' 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
Dim req As New ChilkatHttpRequest

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.
Dim resp As ChilkatHttpResponse
Set resp = http.SynchronousRequest("www.chilkatsoft.com",80,0,req)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess = 0) Then
    Debug.Print http.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.Print resp.BodyStr

Debug.Print "Success."
