* This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Http')
loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

* Use this online tool to generate code from sample XML: Generate Code to Create XML

* The following XML is sent in the request body.

* <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
