'  del.icio.us uses HTTP-Auth, which means you only need
'  to set your login/password here:
http.Login = "chilkatsoft"
http.Password = "MyPassword"

'  Create a request and add the info:
set req = CreateObject("Chilkat.HttpRequest")
req.AddParam "url","http://www.chilkatsoft.com/"
req.AddParam "description","Chilkat Software, Inc."
req.AddParam "tags","chilkat components activex library software"

'  There are other optional params that can be added,
'  but we'll skip those.  More information is at:
'  http://del.icio.us/help/api/posts

'  Indicate the HTTP method desired (POST or GET)
req.UseGet 

'  The path is: /v1/posts/add
req.Path = "/v1/posts/add"

'  Notice that the URL is this:
'  https://api.del.icio.us/v1/posts/add?....
' 
'  The domain = api.del.icio.us
'  We're using HTTPS, so the port = 443, and we set the SSL argument to true (below)
'  The "path" part of the URL is "/v1/posts/add"

'  Send the HTTPS GET and get the response.  Note: This is a blocking call.
'  The method does not return until the full HTTPS response is received.
