ThyRock,
Sorry to get back to you so late...was at work late and just finished
with the family thing dinner etc.....
I used the HTML developers guide because it was easy to develop....here
is the code along with my USPS code
I am using webservices for all three DHL, UPS, and USPS...damn fedex
can't get there stinkin docs! I changed my USPS code to a stringbuilder
like your example..code looks a little more cluttered using
XmlTextWriter, MemoryStream, and XmlDocument...
I have some merchant components coded, we can exhange some code if you
would like...The ups xml service is pretty straight forward maybe I
will code for the xml service this weekend, if you want to wait till
then..otherwise this one works
Cheers,
Precept

Precept,
I tried the URI object and it will return a uri without encoding if you pass
the dontencode parameter set to true.
I tried the StringBuilder approach and it worked so I have move on
to
the
next step.
There are many ways of reaching the same end and I would like very much to
look at
your approach to using the UPS DHL services.
Thanks,
have
and
the
info
);
stringBuilder.Append( "<Size>" + size + "</Size>" );
stringBuilder.Append( "</Package></RateV2Request>" );
WebRequest webRequest = WebRequest.Create( stringBuilder.ToString()
);
try
{
WebResponse webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse();
Stream webResponseStream = webResponse.GetResponseStream();
// txtHTML is a TextArea control to display the raw response for
development
// purposes.
// You would unpack the xml document here and return the needed
values
Byte[] read = new Byte[512];
int bytes = webResponseStream.Read( read, 0, 512 );
txtHTML.InnerHtml = "";
while ( bytes > 0 )
{
// Note:
// The following assumes that the response uses UTF-8 as encoding.
// If the content is sent in a ANSI codepage like 932 use
something like
this:
// Encoding encode =
System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("shift-jis");
Encoding encode = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding( "utf-8" );
txtHTML.InnerHtml = txtHTML.InnerHtml +
encode.GetString(read,
it?
