This software simply demonstrates the use of Windows DLL's to POST data over the Internet and to read back the contents of the returned HTML rather than using the GET equivalent which is less secure.
Inputs
Enter any American IP Address to look up with ARIN.net
Assumes
Example use of Basic Code to replace a web browser to POST request data via HTTP and to call the CGI/ASP to process the POST. So, for example, whereas you may normally on a web-page "POST" field data, this Visual Basic application shows you how to do it in pure code, with an easy Form.
Code Returns
Places the results into text boxes
Side Effects
You need to be connected to the Internet to make this work.
API DeclarationsVarious Internet DLL's
