Subject: Seen It, But can"t find it now.


Morning,

        Had someone ask me this morning for sample ILE/RPG code to do a
Post/Get to a remote Web site for the purpose of exchanging data. I know I
have seen a sample piece of code somewhere to do this I just can not seem to
locate it today.  Does anyone else happen to have a bookmark to this
information ?

Thks,
