I had thought this has been talked about before but have searched this site and can not find any conversations .. sure i am just missing it so ..

How to send a url request from OI. There must be a function to do this but i just haven't found it

example .. i want to do shipping online through usps. In Universe i use their httprequest functions .. what is it in OI

thanks

by the way .. in case this jogs any memories ..

when 7 came out there were a lot of new *socket* functions including the new mail and ftp functions. I have a nagging (imaginary?) ghost memory of there being some type of read/write that could be done.

Look in the helps under sockets:

the GetWebPage function is the one you probably want :)

yeah .. i saw that but it doesn't *seem* to be working as i need for the usps .. but will keep trying

thanks
