Hi Mike, I figured you might reply to this. Thank you!
To further complicate the requirement, this function will run in a
stored procedure that is being executed by Oterro 3.5 based on a
trigger. That said, there cannot be any user interface, window, or
browser so it has to be "Oterro stored procedure" friendly. Maybe a SSL
socket UDF or DLL or something creative like that. I can't write
compiled stuff like that so I would be looking to fund that development.

You need to know how the response is being returned. If I were using
the XMLHttpRequest Object (in client side JScript), the return would
come back from the server via Response.Write and then after the
request is sent, a callback function keeps poling the XMLHttpRequest
object for the return value.
How to get this into RBase? I would write a client side HTA to give
you a GUI interface. Since HTA's can use the FileSystemObject to
access the local file system, you could write the response to a file.
You would include code in your HTA, that upon the response being
returned and written to a file, the HTA would close and you would be
back to your calling form in RBase, ready to get the results from the
file written by the HTA.
That's all I can come up with just now.
