 Hi ,

 I need to pass XML message to a webserver using http.
 Could anybody tell me how I can accomplish this using wget.
 Any help is greatly appreciated..

why would you want to use wget for this? try with nc6:

echo -en PUT http://theurl HTTP 1.1\n`cat file.xml` | nc6 servername 80

you can find nc6 at http://www.deepspace6.net. if the server is ipv4 and
you don't need the advanced functions of nc6, you can also use the plain
old nc instead of nc6.

Wget doesn't currently have http file upload capabilities, but if this XML
message can be sent by cgi POST parameters then Wget could probably do it.
but you'll need to figure out how exactly the XML message is sent using
http.
