Hi,

I have a php script that is used to upload text files to a web server. I want to be able to connect to this script and pass the file(or file contents) to it from an application. Can anyone help me out on this. I have been looking at using winsock, but am unable to get the file part to work.

Many Thanks

John,

It should not require anything near as complicated as WINSOCK, the PB built in TCP commands should work fine.

Here is an example to send stuff to a CGI script which should not be too much off from sending it to a PHP script. It a simple matter decoding what is being posted.

Here is the link from the PowerBASIC site...

Many thanks, should I be able to adapt this code to run under PB for windows?

Simply change the stdout to msgbox and the waitkey$ to a msgbox as well and it's done.
