 Uploading a file using Inet control with HTTP

Hi,

I need to create a VB component that will upload files to a Web server using
the HTTP protocol. I tried using the Inet Transfer control but I have no
idea on how to do the upload using HTTP. There is lot of documentation about
uploading a file with FTP and almost nothing with HTTP.

Does anyone have documentation or tips on how to upload a file using HTTP?
Is using APIs a better choice?

Thanks!

David

We have an HTTP control as part of our SocketTools Visual Edition
package that can be used to upload files to a Web server with the HTTP
PUT method.  One caveat, however, is that the server has to be
specifically configured to allow PUT's.

An evaluation copy of the SocketTools Visual Edition package can be
downloaded from our website at http://www.catalyst.com

Using the Execute Method with the HTTP Protocol
The HTTP protocol allows client machines to request data from the server
using the GET, HEAD, POST, and PUT commands.

for complete info type Using the Internet Transfer Control in MSDN  search.
Also a book "Visual Basic Components Tools Guide" has the same info.
