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

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

// The XML sent in the body of the request is application
// specified -- it should contain whatever the server-side
// application is expecting..
Dim xmlStr As String
xmlStr = "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""UTF-8""?><appXml><something>123</something></appXml>"

// The PostXml method may be called to send the XMLHttpRequest
// using the "POST" HTTP method (also known as "verb").
Dim urlEndpoint As String
urlEndpoint = "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/xmlEcho.asp"
Dim xmlCharset As String
xmlCharset = "utf-8"

Dim resp As Chilkat.HttpResponse
resp = http.PostXml(urlEndpoint,xmlStr,xmlCharset)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(http.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// The raw HTTP request sent by the above call is:

// POST /xmlEcho.asp HTTP/1.1
// Content-Type: text/xml
// Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
// Accept: */*
// Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*; q=0.7
// Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5
// Accept-Encoding: gzip
// Content-Length: 81
// 
// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><appXml><something>123</something></appXml>

// Examine the Body of the HTTP response
// This would be the XML response sent by the server.
