Re: Receiving an http post.

I'm not the original poster, but your answer is not clear to
me likely my
ignorance rather then your suggested solution. Could you
post a snippet of
code to show this?

Thanks

The easiest way to create an HttpHandler is to right click
on your web
project in visual studio.
Choose add new Item
Choose add generic handler.

Visual Studio will create a empty handler class for you.

Your part is to fill in the method

public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
 object whatEver = context.Request["whatever"]

 context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
 context.Response.Write("Hello World");
}

Another way is to create a class derived from IHttpHandler.
And register the class in the webconfig in the HttpHandler
section.
There you can specify which urls and/or which http methods
(GET/POST)
it should handle.
