how to make IE6 send HTTP POST request ?

[Tony B]

Is there an easy way to make IE send a POST http request to my local web
server ?
I'm writing a very simple webserver and I want to test how it deals with a
POST http request. (Doesn't have to make any sense since I will reject it
anyway in the webserver ?)
Thanks
Tony

Create a form that uses POST. If you can't do this on your webserver, then
just create it locally but have the ACTION attribute point to your web
server, eg.

<form action=http://mywebserver/page method="POST">
<input type="text" name="field"> <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
