Posts from WebSpeed

Hello,

First. I was wondering if there is a way that POST can be done to another
web server from within webspeed without a browser initiating the POST.

Second. Does anyone know of any 4GL that can encode and decode a message
into base64 or back into normal text.

thanks,
mattB

In the upcoming 9.1 release (3.1 for WebSpeed), there is Socket support that
allows you to do this. For older versions, you'll have to call outside of
the 4GL.

I've had success with code found on ftp://buford.sauge.com/pub/code/c with
gethtml file. You can post by changing the GET in the write() to a POST.

This code is for UNIX (works on AIX, UNIXWare, and Linux).

mime64 entails a lot of mathematics. There is C code out there that can do it
if you search on it via the web.
