I'd recommend using curl.  It has options for sending HTTP POST data in
a couple of different formats.  With nc, you'll have to fabricate the
entire request and pipe it in.  Easy enough to determine the format by
tcpdumping a browser session, but curl has done the work and lets you
do error checking on the response.
