Re: HTTPPOSTCLOBVERBOSE - invoking a HTTPS web service

I agree with this... GETURI and HTTPAPI have been around for a lot longer
and been through the trials of thousands of shops using them.

Both are supported very well, GETURI through myself and HTTPAPI through
Scott and his mailing list.

You would be done with the project by now if you use one of them. :)

SELECT * FROM

SQL syntax for an HTTP request?? For heaven's sake - give me a break!

Eric, stop wasting company time and money on this nonsense and use the
tools (that work) that you already have at your disposal. At least then
you/we have the ability to diagnose issues if and when they arise.
