ok wayne, I think I am done responding to you, you don't get it.
To All: The solution provided with the overload of the useragent
parameter is a hack and should be seen as that. It creates a http
request that does not meet the spec by the payment company because it
has 2 content-type headers.
Of course we have all had to HACK a solution, and there is nothing
wrong with that. However, I would be wary doing this with a payment
service on a important ecommerce site of a client of mine. It may work
today, but not tomorrow. It can just break. The service may change
their server code in a way that more strictly follows the spec they
have provided. The fact that a hack works today is no guarantee it
will work tomorrow. When the service changes, you will have no
recourse, because you were not following the spec.
Anyway, I thought I would throw that out, because it has happened to
me before, and you should be wary of it.

My frustration WAS towards John’s continual unhelpful and critical
posts.
You offered your services, I accepted. You did the work, I paid. In
the process you learnt something.
You can try with witango, using <@url> and plugging in the xml to
the POSTARGS
parameter, but I don't think it will work.
As you found out, it does.
Here’s the approach I work by on this list:
If some one asks a question that I can answer I then have to decide
whether or not to answer it. Then if I feel like it I answer it. If
I don’t I keep my mouth shut.
And for that piece of advice: NO CHARGE.
