[rodrigo.rodenbeek]

Hello, guys.

I would like to knoe how to do following example in java, instead of
PHP

--- start ---
$id = 1;
$postUrlData = array( 'id' => $id );

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://mysite/some-cgi" );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postUrlData );

$data_returned = curl_exec( $ch );
curl_close( $ch );

if( $data_returned == "ok" )
echo "<pre>it's ok</pre>";
--- end ---

Regards,

Google is your friend.
Personally, I find Jakarta's HttpClient likeable and it doesn't soil the
carpet.

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/

Check out the tutorials for HttpClient at the above page, they include
doing GET or POST requests.
