RE: posting to URL from RPG
If the response is truly not desired, can /dev/null be used for the result file?
Also, given the parameters in the URL, are you sure you're supposed to POST and not GET? Do you actually have data to send to the server?

Hi Tripp,
Are you sure you want to POST to a form? I ask that because you're not using the POST data at all. What's the point of doing a POST if you're not going to use POST data?
Why not do a GET like a browser does?
the weird thing is... you are sending your response file to the web server. WTF?! So whatever you downloaded last time, you want to upload it the subsequent time?
