Re: Help with new method?

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Alvin,

Which programming language was that code written in?  I don't recognize 
the syntax.  You'll need to look up the parameters for the 'open' method 
of the "Microsoft.XMLHTTP" class in whatever programming language that 
is...  this'll tell you what 'false' does.

Good luck!
