Calling a web form from Delphi with Post information: How to do?

[CHeighlund]

A lot of the stuff I work with in Delphi is supposed to call up web-based php forms. In the past, I've done this with ShellExecute and the URL, sometimes including '?X=Y' to activate $_GET information. How would I go about building a similar call so that, instead of using the $_GET setup, I could use the $_POST setup instead? I'm getting nervous about having information sitting inside the URL, since anyone with access to the form could go back and swipe a couple of bits of information I'd rather not be leaving out.

POST information is given via STDIN. Change your webform from GET to POST and you should be set. The environment variable CONTENT_LENGTH holds the number of characters to be read. When you read the data, the variables will look the same as they do in GET.
