Wayne, you had everything you needed in the posts. I didn't have the whole solution at the top of my head, and neither did anyone else, but the pieces were all there, here is what I said in one post:

This can be easily done with other languages, like .NET and PHP and JAVA with a http request class. However, witango does not have this ability. It has <@url>, but it doesn't allow you to specify the content-type, which usually must be text/xml. You can try with witango, using <@url> and plugging in the xml to the POSTARGS parameter, but I don't think it will work.

Actually, you can do it easily with Witango. I do it all the time. There is just one little trick that you need to use to get around the issue of
not being able to set content-type as an argument for @URL.

You do this by "overloading" the useragent parameter thusly:

useragent= "Witango Server <@version><@crlf> Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

(the above may wrap). In my case, this was the content-type that I needed. You can substitute some other type instead. Of course, it would be nice if version 6 would include a content-type argument to the @URL function
so that we didn't have to use this kludge, but it does work.

I told you to try putting the xml into the postargs, and Gonick told you how to overload the useragent with one example, but specifically said you may need another type. Your documents and my post specified it should be text/xml.

Thats what these forums are for, we gave you knowledge from our experience to get you toward a solution, and you were given the pieces you needed to do it.

Now, maybe you just didn't try the right combination, and the solution eluded you, so you had to pay me to work it out for you. That's fine, but I think your frustration towards this group, is COMPLETELY unjustified.
