You're looking at a sockets application.  The FAQ has some information on
sockets I think, http://faq.midrange.com.  Also, general web-type stuff can
be found at Easy400 web site at http://www-922.ibm.com.  Have a look at Brad
Stone's GETURI, from http://www.bvstools.com (from the Open Source section.)
