1. PROBLEM: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I noticed if i do a simple POST request to a web page the page dosnt get the post data, so i created a custom html page that loggs the requests data when it occurs, and the log says that the post request includes the length of the postable data (HTTP_CONTENT_LENGTH:12) but not the data itself. The posted data was "Comm=hello11" and if the page would get it there will be one more key field in the asp.net page.request class extract like this (this was extracted from a simple testpost caused by a button in the webpage) :

Key: Comm
Value:hello11

but there isnt.

Here is all what the server get when the httpclient post a request(extracted from asp.net page.request object):

2.PROBLEM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know a method to not overwrite but add some strings to the http.headers object, because i think if i modify(overwrite) the headers data the http api will not send some important data to the webpage and it causes problems, like the http request goes wrong and the cant get any data back from the server.

If somebody know a solution to any of my problems please help.

Thanks

Hi Gabour,

Do you have some example code you are having problems with? It'd probably help people identify your problem.

Also, http://mbed.org/users/donatien/ is working on an improved version of the stacks, so the feedback would be good. The new version is much more stable and flexible.

I used the slightly modified version of "post nothing" code from here:

http://mbed.org/projects/cookbook/wiki/HTTPClient

So i just changed the url to an aspx page and the post data.

I have found a solution.

The modified version of this code is capaple of posting:

http://mbed.org/projects/cookbook/wiki/EMAC/purehttpc

You simply need to write the http get/post requests yourself or copy outand modify from an another post request from fiddler2 raw data.

Fiddler2 is a http monitoring program what is capable of monitoring the outbound http requests.
