I am trying out an example to HTTP POST to a web site. The host language
is not Perl, unfortunately.
I tried to test it with telnet first...I am getting 501 Method not
implemented...
I am doing something wrong.
telnet www.xe.com 80
POST /ucc/convert.cgi HTTP/1.1
Host: www.xe.com
Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Amount=100&From=USD&To=AUD&submit=1
This is what I get:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
