        hi everybody,

        can anyone please point me (or maybe provide) to a sample of how to post an xml message into a receive adapter. I have already configured IIS and created my virtual directory…the remaining step which i do not know is how to actually issue an http post which holds my xml document into my virtual directory.

        thanks in advance

          You can do this using HttpWebRequest. There are lots of samples around the net for that (here's one, though not the best: http://www.netomatix.com/Development/XmlWebRequest.aspx).

              thanks for your reply. the sample was helpful.

              i was wonder though if there is a possibility to create a simple html page, insert my xml inside the form tag, set  form action url to my virtual directory, and then post the page via html submit button? Is that possible?

              thanks again…

                  Yes it is possible.

                  BUT.

                  The message your receive is not the xml message. You will receive an application/www-form-urlencoded message which is basically a flat file of name/value pairs.

                  I have a generic project with schemas, maps and pipelines that will convert application/www-form-urlencoded messages into Xml, if you would like a copy email me.

                  You could also create a custom pipeline component to decode/disassemble this message
