string URLEncode(string toCode) {
  int max = StringLen(toCode);
  string RetStr = "";
  for(int i=0;i<max;i++) {
    string c = StringSubstr(toCode,i,1);
    int  asc = StringGetChar(c, 0);
    if((asc == 95) || (asc == 46) || (asc > 47 && asc < 58) || (asc > 64 && asc < 91) || (asc > 96 && asc < 123)) 
      RetStr = StringConcatenate(RetStr,c);
    else if (asc == 32)
      RetStr = StringConcatenate(RetStr,"+");
    else {
      RetStr = StringConcatenate(RetStr,"%",hex(asc));
    }
  }
  return (RetStr);
}

I add the asc == 95 case in order to keep my underscores underscores and 46 in order to keep my points too...

Hello, is there a way how to post whole (.ex4) file?

[Jacek Dominiak]

Is it possible to upload the files with that library as well?

[Point Zero]

Oh right! Thank you very very much. I have a question... what happens if the client happens not to have the DLL in its system???

Hi to all,

Can someone tell me how to use basic HTTP authentication using this library?

I know that the underlaying library is WinHTTP which supports basic authentication but I can't manage to get it working inside script.

Thank you so much!
