Apologies. Those methods are being set. I don't understand why this is a Java question though. The InputBuffer is a Tomcat class and the default of 8K is being set in that, which is restricting the transfer of my data.

If post.Conn is a URLConnection you opened from the applet (looks that way) then you need to call setDoInput() and setDoOutput() methods (basically read/write) to make it a post. There is also a setUseCaches() (true or false) to control caching, default is true (reload button). Most of my statement is from the Javadocs.
