| | HTTP POST Basics |
 | | In constrast, a POST request sends additional data to the web server, specified after the URL, the headers, and a blank line to indicate the end of the headers. |
 | | You send the data for a "form post" in the same format you use for URL query parameters, except that you drop the leading ? |
 | | In general, you'll use POST requests to transfer data from a MIDP client to a web server, because the web server doesn't log the data you send, and you can send binary data - handy for transferring byte arrays or serialized Java objects. |
