Maybe you want something like this? (untested) curl -F "fieldname=@/home/vidya/vidya_test1.xml;type=text/xml" "https://members.ordermotion.com/hdde/xml/udi.asp"; or maybe "<" instead of "@". See the curl documentation for details. You would have to find out what "fieldname" should be. Also, you're on the wrong mailing list. I believe the one you want is here: http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/curl-users -- Michael Wood <[email protected]>
