IdHttpServer ? Could you take the time to use capitals please ?

That looks like a get. Not a post. The method attribute of the form
tag determines if the browser sends the request as a post or a get.

Indeed.

Of course TIdHttpServer will receive all data as get or post.

Please be more exact in explaining what your real problem is.

Hi,

i have build me a http web form whoch open this php file:

<?
$url = "http://192.168.0.10:8080/mail=" . $mail . "&id=" . $id;
echo file_get_contents($url);
?>

an example string would be

http://192.168.0.10:8080/mail=info@hotmail.com&id=12345

In my application i am working with the CommandGet event (from idhttpserver)
and read the parameters via:

String line = ARequestInfo->Document;

Line has now the value "/mail=info@hotmail.com&id=12345"

now i ask me how to get the values for id and mail. is there perhabs a
better way to transfer the information to make it easyer or do i have to
write a string parsr which gives me the id and the email?

That is not a valid URL.  Data parameters must be placed after a "?"
character, which in turn should follow a filename, and special characters
like @ should be encoded, ie:

    http://192.168.0.10:8080/somedocument?mail=info%40hotmail.com&id=12345

On the server end, the ARequestInfo->Document property will now be
"/somedocument" and the ARequestInfo->Params property will be filled in with
the "mail" and "id" values.

hi gambit,

>     http://192.168.0.10:8080/somedocument?mail=info%40hotmail.com&id=12345

i changed my php script and use urlencode function, to decode the parameter
;)

to check this i wrote:

ShowMessage(ARequestInfo->Params->Text);

i get this here:

---------------------------
|  mail=info@hotmail.com |
|  id=12345                      |
---------------------------

is there also an easy way to read the values 12345 and info@hotmail.com into
to string variables named String mail and String id?

The Params property is a TStrings, and as such it inherits Name[] and
Values[] subproperties.

    AnsiString mail = ARequestInfo->Params->Values["mail"];
    AnsiString id = ARequestInfo->Params->Values["id"];
