post to .net webservice using inet control[resolved]

[sagey]

I am trying to use a .net webservice in a vb6 app, but without using a control i have to then put on the client machines.

i have tried posting data to the webservice using the inet control but i keep getting a malformed url error, i'm not sure if im even posting to the correct place

    
    wsurl = "http://localhost/Email/Email.asmx/SendEmail"
    postdata = "isHTML=true&[email protected]&[email protected]&Subject=this is a test email&Body=this is the body of the test email&applicationName=testapp2&emailID=test2"
    Inet1.Execute wsurl, "POST", postdata

wsurl = "http://localhost/Email/Email.asmx/SendEmail"
    postdata = "isHTML=true&[email protected]&[email protected]&Subject=this is a test email&Body=this is the body of the test email&applicationName=testapp2&emailID=test2"
    Inet1.Execute wsurl, "POST", postdata

I remember encountering something roughly the same not so long ago, the spaces in the strings are fine as they are automatically transformed to +'s along the way.
But, when you are querying the Sendemail part you are adding your string to the URL without sending it as a query... here is how i believe it should look -

wsurl = "http://localhost/Email/Email.asmx/SendEmail?" 'note the ? to  show a query
    postdata = "isHTML=true&[email protected]&[email protected]&Subject=this is a test email&Body=this is the body of the test email&applicationName=testapp2&emailID=test2"
    Inet1.Execute wsurl, "POST", postdata

If it helps Rate me, if not, then sorry, but i tried
