    //  This example simulates this FORM:
    //  <form action="processPost.asp" method="post">
    //  First name: <input type="text" name="firstName"><br />
    //  Last name: <input type="text" name="lastName"><br />
    //  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
    //  </form>
    //  The online FORM is found at this URL:
    //  http://www.chilkatsoft.com/simpleForm.html

    //  Build an HTTP POST Request:
    req.UsePost();

    //  The FORM target is http://www.chilkatsoft.com/processPost.asp
    //  An easy way of filling out most of the HTTP request object
    //  is to call SetFromUrl:
    req.SetFromUrl("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/processPost.asp");

    //  The only remaining task is to add the params to the
    //  HTTP request object:
    req.AddParam("firstName","Matt");
    req.AddParam("lastName","Jones");

    //  Send the HTTP POST and get the response.
    //  The POST is being sent to chilkatsoft.com, on port 80
    //  (the default HTTP port), and not using SSL.

    if (resp == null ) {
