Using NetLib does *not* mean that you are not using proxy. What are you
trying to acheive? INetLib has many good features like LZ77. But if
you try to use INetLib without a proxy (inetCfgDefWireline etc...) you will
not
get any of those features. If you just want to do HTTP over an regular
TCP/IP
connection and don't want to worry about proxy, you should think about using
NetLib directly. Someone had posted even a source code a while back (Dec
2000)
in this newsgroup. HTTP protocol is very simple.
1. Open a socket to the host's port 80.
2. Write "GET /myurl/myfile HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" to the socket and read what
you get from it.
3. Or write "POST /myurl/myfile HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\nx=y&a=b&c=d" (where the last
part is your URL encoded data) to the socket and read what you get as
response.
