[Freeswitch-users] mod-curl POST

[Rupa Schomaker]

Umm.. I just explained how to do it.  The only piece missing is the setting
of the content-type header, but if that isn't going to be a problem you
odn't have to do anything special.

Just remember to urlencode the (full) contents of the XML.

And try it out.  Use wireshark to see what is sent over the wire to the
server.
