Help accessing server via POST using VBSCRIPT

Full-Text RSS
1

I’ve been trying to get the small piece of code to work with the RSS server I installed on local machine, but I keep getting “No URL Supplied” message.

Code:

Dim objXMLHTTP, xml
Set xml = CreateObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”)

xml.Open “POST”, “http://127.0.0.1/full-text-rss-3.1/makefulltextfeed.php”, False
xml.setRequestHeader “Content-Type”, “application/x-www-form-urlencoded”

xml.Send “url=feeds.bizjournals.com%2Fbizj_portland”

MsgBox xml.responseText

Set xml = Nothing

Really simple code segment, but I’m obviously doing something wrong in the POST request process. The server is installed and I can request full text RSS via the normal browser form, but I want to eventually work with the server via scripts. Thanks for any assistance. Paul

Hi Pual, just posting my email reply here in case anyone else has this issue:

We do not yet accept parameters submitted in a POST request. Sending this as a GET request should work. The parameters should appear in the URL: e.g. …makefulltextfeed.php?url=feeds.bizjournals.com%2Fbizj_portland
