Re: Problem: Post data getting garbled on British customer's box

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can control how data is translated by the calling the http_setCCSIDs 
routine.

If the postData is in US EBCDIC, you'd do:

    callp http_setccsids( 1208 : 37 );

If the postData is in UK EBCDIC, it'd be:

    callp http_setccsids( 1208 : 285 );

Use whatever CCSID you like...

Note that although you stated "ASCII", JSON data should never be ASCII, 
JSON is always UTF-8 (CCSID 1208).
