Hi!

How can i send http Post and Get messages to a Web server from within R?
Is there something like?
form(action="http://big.thing.inf/cgi-bin/answer.pl",list(test="my",something="there"),method="POST")
Or is is there an example how to write it with R?
What functions to use to write such a function?

Eryk

They are just text that you write to a socket, so try

help.search("socket")
