Just FYI,

Never forget to put Content-Length in your header while making a POST request. I've been into troubles many time when neglected this. It caused issue like my HTTP POST requests from Blackberry never reaches to server, the fix was to put correct Content-Length header with correct length of passing data in bytes.

example:
hc.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", 583);

I hope it would help.

Thanks,
Sameer.

hi

if you are using this kind of thing

www.abc[dot]com[slash]webservice.cfm?mode=Login&userid=myId@hotmail.com&password=12345

It is a get request not a post request. get request can retrieve data by directly calling the url by attaching the params as u mentioned.
