Hi All,
I saw a couple of postings related to POST and ASP...and never really
saw an answer...as far as I can tell, this solution works for ASP and
some other web servers (HTML/OS) that accept a POST command.
This example works for ASP..by modifying the httpHeaders just ever so
slightly. The addition is:
set the httpHeaders to "Content-type:
application/x-www-form-urlencoded"&return
make a field with the name "Earl" and put the url into it (i.e.
http://localhost/default.asp)
make a field with the name "data" and put some text in there (i.e. hi )
make a button and put the following script.
on mouseUp
set the httpHeaders to "Content-type:
application/x-www-form-urlencoded"&return
# The trailing return is the key...without it, this spits back all
sorts of errors.
put field "Earl" into mURL
put "myText="&field data into tText
post tText to URL mURL
put it
end mouseUp
The ASP file (i.e. http://localhost/default.asp)
should have:
<% Language=VBScript %>
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<%
Response.Write Request.Form("myText")
%>
</body>
</html>
The html, head and body tags arent really necessary.
It should just spit back what you put in the data field.
