in thread POST request problem

Yes, somehow missed reading that, thanks.

However, I would recommend giving it some actual content (not an empty string). Do the folks running the server not suggest what the POSTed content should be? There is little point to a POST request with no content.

    I know, all the info is in the query string and to my mind this should be a simple GET request. There are a few layers between me and the people running the server which I have not been able to penetrate. I will try out giving it some content, and also Corion's suggestion. Thanks.
