Reference for unit 'http'

Notes

This unit allows one to get or post data to and from other websites remotely (i.e. on different domains than your site) using the HTTP protocol.

This unit relies on the FPC sockets unit. If you find it limiting without enough features, you can always use Synapse, lNet, Indy, cURL, or other http related units.

The sockets unit in older copies of FPC (i.e. 2.0.4) has been known to be buggy on Windows operating systems. This bug was reported to FPC and fixed. Latest Powtils 1.6.x releases include a temporary patch that solves the issue for older compilers.
