Re: Post to aspx (This time w files attached)

Hi Julie,

Sorry, that should've been http_url_post  (without the "_stmf" at the 
end.)  I copy/pasted your code and changed it, and I forgot to change 
the procedure name.

Please try it without the "_stmf" -- that's what's causing the 
'parameter does not match the prototype' error that the RPG compiler is 
giving you -- you're calling the wrong prototype.  My fault!  Sorry 
about that.

With regards to the debug file you sent... the data you're sending looks 
like pure garbage.  I'm guessing that whatever your CL program is doing 
to convert it from a PF to a STMF is failing to do ASCII/EBCDIC conversion.
