Buddy,

Post method works the same as Get. The only difference is that Post actually sends provided data, while Get only retrieves the requested page.

What I mean is when you call Post method, it's the same as if you pressed the Submit Button ( Make TinyURL! ). The url you provided is submitted to page, and the request is processed. After that, the server provides response, which you receive as HttpResponse object.

If you check Response at that point, you should have the page source in Response.Body property.

The same applies to the other sites. You need to submit your search criteria, so I assume you will need to use Post method. However, extracting the data you require from the response is up to you.

Damba
