<?php

$success = 0;

$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");
$req = new COM("Chilkat.HttpRequest");
$resp = new COM("Chilkat.HttpResponse");

// Specify the details of the HTTP request.
$req->HttpVerb = 'POST';
$req->ContentType = 'application/json';
$req->Path = '/echo_request_body.asp';

$requestBody = '{\'greeting\':\'Hello World\'}';
$req->LoadBodyFromString($requestBody,'utf-8');

// Send a POST to https://chilkatsoft.com/echo_request_body.asp with a JSON request body.
$success = $http->HttpSReq('chilkatsoft.com',443,1,$req,$resp);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

print 'Response Status Code: ' . $resp->StatusCode . "\n";

// Examine the request we sent.
// The LastHeader property stores the HTTP request header of the most recent request sent,
// and in this instance, the response body mirrors the request body.
print $http->LastHeader . "\n";
print $resp->BodyStr . "\n";

// Output:

// POST /echo_request_body.asp HTTP/1.1
// Host: chilkatsoft.com
// Content-Type: application/json
// Content-Length: 26
// 
// {"greeting":"Hello World"}
