hi all,
i have a requirement of sending a request to a web service from my smart device application.
i need to do this using XML the response of which will also be XML.
could anyone get me started on this.
i have a sample application using the following functions
1. InternetOpen
2. InternetCrackUrl - (to this the url along with the request was being passed)
3. InternetConnect
4. HttpOpenRequest
5. HttpSendRequest
6. InternetReadFile
in that order.
but i need to send the request in XML format and need to do it through a "post".
i'm not sure if the functions mentioned above do it through a "get" or a "post".
any sample application doing this would be of great help.
cheers
thanks in advance

Performing a POST request using WinHTTP is described here:
http://support.microsoft.com/ kbid=165298
Basically it is about specifying "POST" in HttpOpenRequest and setting content type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded
I also suggest to check out SOAP toolikit (available in the platform builder)
