# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()

jsonText = "{\"user\":\"doctoravatar@penzance.com\",\"forecast\":7,\"t\":\"vlIj\",\"zip\":94089}"

# and other data items to your own values.  The URL used
# in this example will not actually work.

success = http.HttpStr("POST","https://json.penzance.org/request",jsonText,"utf-8","application/json",resp)
if (success == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
