HttpWebRequest is not posting

[Jeff Washburn]

Hi All,

I have an HttpWebRequest object that is supposed to post data to a web
page. The server is receiving the data, and I am getting an OK
response. However, the data is not ending up on the server. I put a
test on the server, and it shows that a hit is being made, but that is
all.

Here is the code I am using:

Dim content as string =
"txtName=Fred&t xtNumber=123&tx tData=ABC123"
Dim wr As HttpWebRequest = WebRequest.Crea te(url)
Dim s As Stream
wr.Method = "POST"
wr.ContentType = "applicatio n/x-www-form-urlencoded"
wr.ContentLengt h = content.Length
s = wr.GetRequestSt ream
Dim sw As New StreamWriter(s, Encoding.ASCII)
sw.Write(conten t)
sw.Close()
sw = Nothing
Dim wRes As HttpWebResponse = CType(wr.GetRes ponse,
HttpWebResponse )
wr.Abort()
wr = Nothing
s = Nothing
wRes.Close()
wRes = Nothing

Does anyone have any ideas why the data is not ending up on the
server? I have triple checked the spelling of the control names.

Thanks!!
Jeff
