set http = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Http")

'  Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = http.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial")
If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( http.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"

End If

'  Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
'  logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a log file.

'  The SessionLogFilename may be used with any of the HTTP
'  methods for sending GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc.
http.SessionLogFilename = "c:/temp/httpSessionLog.txt"

'  Try a simple HTTP GET and then examine the session log:

html = http.QuickGetStr("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html")
If (html = vbNullString ) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( http.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"

End If

'  Here are the contents of the session log file after doing
'  the GET request:
