I am making a text messager app for my computer and previously it simply followed a URL and tacked the message otop the end of the URL lalong with the phone number in a certain format, but now times have chanegd and the site requires users to login etc etc and I now cannot use my old cheat method from a VB app and instead want to post all the necessary data tothe CGI script. Does anyone know how I can do this or even a component that might be able to help me!! Go easy, I am quite a newbie to internet programming!
