    // Imagine a URL that contains two params: one named "xyz" and one named "name".
    // We want to send a POST to it, but with 2 additional params in the body of the request.
    // The PostUrlEncoded method cannot be used because it parses the URL and puts all the params
    // in the HTTP body.  The HttpSReq method should instead be used so
    // that the req.Path can be explicitly specified.
    url = "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt";

    http = CkHttp_Create();

    // Provide a session log path so we can visually verify the exact request sent.
    // (This is only for debugging purposes.)
    CkHttp_putSessionLogFilename(http,"c:/aaworkarea/httpLog.txt");

    // Create an HTTP request that has two additional params
    req = CkHttpRequest_Create();

    CkHttpRequest_putHttpVerb(req,"POST");
    CkHttpRequest_putPath(req,"/echoPost.asp?xyz=123&name=matt");
