I am using Delphi6 and have written a program that generates a set of
coordinates. Now I would like to send these automatically via http post to a
particular website that uses Google Map to plot routes. The following is an
example of html code that does this from a web form (see
http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/misc/post_example.html

) Can someone explain how I can send the same information from within my
Delphi program please? I see in the Delphi help something about http post
but, being simple minded, I cant understand what one actually does.
