i think i am going a bit crazy, when i test this on my local webserver, it works fine when i go out to the live website, it returns a blank string instead of the data i am expecting
i am not that familiar with C#, so i just wanted to check i am doing things right. the data is just plain ascii text
wc = new WebClient();
wc.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
response = wc.UploadData(this.urlUpdate, Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("data=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(buf.ToString())));
s = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(response);
var httpClient = new HttpClient(); string url = "http://stopbyte.com"; // Just a sample url string parametersJson = "{'param1':'value1','param2':'value2'}" response = await httpClient. PostAsync(url, new StringContent(parametersJson)); response. EnsureSuccessStatusCode(); string content = await response.
The WebClient class uses the WebRequest class to provide access to resources. WebClient instances can access data with any WebRequest descendant registered with the WebRequest. RegisterPrefix method. UploadString Sends a String to the resource and returns a String containing any response.
The WebClient class provides common methods for sending data to or receiving data from any local, intranet, or Internet resource identified by a URI. The WebClient class uses the WebRequest class to provide access to resources.
It really depends what you are trying to do... I'm not sure, for example, why you are url-encoding data in the body. An easier way to post key/value pairs is with UploadValues
;
NameValueCollection inputs = new NameValueCollection();
string value = ...
inputs.Add("data", value);
webClient.UploadValues(address, inputs);
