Hi All

A beta of the latest version of libUrl is available at the following url:

<http://www.runrev.com/revolution/developers/interimreleases/liburl/releases.shtml>

In addition to some bug fixes, it has a number of new features:


It provides support for emulating htmls forms of types 
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and "multipart/form-data". (The 
latter is commonly used for uploading files from html forms to web 
servers.)

There is also support for setting callbacks to handle authentication 
on http and proxy servers. Except in the case of the Basic 
authentication scheme, this will probably require an external to 
implement fully. However, Chipp Walters has agrred to make available 
a dll that handles Windows NTLM authentication. Expect more 
information to be forthcoming.

Note: this a beta version, so test before trusting important data to it.

Cheers
Dave
