The name of this has changed to man:std_net_http#http_get as we also have man:std_net_http#http_post.

An example of using http_get is can be found in demo/net/wget.ex or demo/net/google_tts.ex. Here is a simple example also:

include std/net/http.e 
 
object result = http_get("http://example.com") 
if atom(result) then 
    printf(1, "Web error: %d\n", result) 
    abort(1) 
end if 
 
printf(1, "Content: %s\n", { result[2] }) 
-- headers are stored in result[1] 

NOTE: I added the above example to the docs on http_get, it is not yet reflected in the online manual however, give it a few hours.

What?

The first parameter is the URL - which is made up of a combination of factors, including hostname and filepath/filename.

http_get() returns the data as an object, so there's no "local file" that it needs to know about to save the data to.

I see something is fishy. I'm using a help I downloaded in compiled html format(.chm) which discusses get_http()with slightly different parameters and you're talking about http_get() so I assume my help file is out of date.

Thanks just the same for your help

Is there a similar current on line manual for using A. wxEuphoris B. Win32Lib?
