Syntax:	HTTPPOST	[ target resource ] [ input source ] [ output target ]
Arguments:	[ target resource ]	Variable or string defining the target resource name to POST to.
	[ input source ]	Variable or string providing HTTP Request body contents.
	[ output target ]	Variable or string providing location to store HTTP Response body contents.
Options:	/intype=xx	Input source type: string, file, or prepared. The default is file.
	/outtype=xx	Output source type: string or file. The default is file.
	/contenttype=xx	HTTP Content-Type header, default: "text/plain; charset=utf-8" This option is ignored when /intype=prepared.

This script command will perform a POST transaction on a HTTP/HTTPS site. Most common web forms use POST transactions.

Consider the following example where your input source is a string rather than a file name:

Consider the following example where you would like the response body to be stored in a variable rather than a file:

Consider the following example where your request body’s content is iso8859-1 encoded xml:

HTTPPOST "/rootdir/example.php" "infile.xml" "outfile.xml" /contenttype="text/xml; charset=iso8859-1"

You may wish to build your HTTP POST Request programmatically in a script rather than using a static string or text file. To accomplish this task, build the Request body using the PREPAREPOST and POSTVALUE script commands and then submit it with HTTPPOST using the /intype=prepared option.

Use the RCVFILE script command to submit web forms that rely on the HTTP GET verb.
