Hi, here is an example of some code i'm using to post data to a website... unfortunately, the data doesn't seem to be getting posted, could you tell me what is wrong with the code?

CString Data = "";
CString URL = "https://www.24store.com.au/merchant/offline/index.pl";
// Initialise Variants...
Data = "test=blahblahblah";
ovData.ChangeType(VT_BSTR);
ovData.bstrVal = _bstr_t(Data);
ovResult.ChangeType(VT_BSTR);
ovResult = _bstr_t("");
ovEmpty.ChangeType(VT_EMPTY);
//ovData.bstrVal;
pComms->SetTimeout(0); // No timeout...
pComms->SetUrl(URL);
pComms->Post(ovData,ovEmpty,ovResult,ovEmpty,_bstr_t(""),_bstr_t(""));

unfortunately, the variable "test" doesn't make it to the web server.... is there something wrong with the code?
Thanks.

Hi,
The code below should work with our post sample site. Does it?
When you change the Url, does it work?
Thanks,
-ken

  COleVariant ovData, ovEmpty, ovResult;
  
  CString URL = "http://www.dart.com/PostSample.asp";
  pHttp->Url = _bstr_t(URL);
  
  CString Data = "test=blahblahblah";
  ovData = Data;

  ovResult.ChangeType(VT_BSTR);
  ovResult = "";

  ovEmpty.ChangeType(VT_EMPTY);

  pHttp->Post(ovData, ovEmpty, ovResult, ovEmpty, "", "");
