Hello Rob, Alex and others,
Thanks a lot for your help but I am still not able to solve the problem. I
tried the con.setRequestProperty( "Content-type", "text/html") as suggested
by Alex , I tried the con.connect() as suggested by Rob, where con is an
object of class java.net.URLConnection but it is still not working. Can
anyone help me please? I am under tremendous pressure to complete this
assignment. I am sending the problem again
