Looks like you are trying to emulate a typical form post. The content type
typically used is multipart/form-data. The full content type header also
needs to indicate the boundary used within the post data to delineate the
different parts... here's some pseudo code.
string sCRLF = "\r\n";
string sDashes = "--";
string sBoundary = "some dashes and numbers and letters that does
not occur in element names|values|filedata";
string sMultipartContentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary=" +
sBoundary;
foreach (formfield) {
WriteString( stream, sDashes + sBoundary + sCRLF );
WriteString( stream, "Content-Disposition: form-data;
name= formfield.name<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http%3A%2F%2Ffield.name>
"
+ sCRLF );
WriteString( stream, sCRLF );
WriteString( stream, field.value);
WriteString( stream, sCRLF );
}
foreach (formfile) {
WriteString( stream, sDashes + sBoundary + sCRLF );
WriteString( stream, "Content-disposition: form-data;
name=
formfile.name<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http%3A%2F%2Fattachment.name>;
filename=formfile.filename" + sCRLF );
WriteString( stream, sCRLF );
WriteStream( stream, formfile.filestream);
WriteString( stream, sCRLF );
}
if ((formfields.Count > 0) || (formfiles.Count > 0)) {
WriteString( stream, sDashes + sBoundary + sDashes +
sCRLF );
}
