If you want to do CLEINT-side HTTP requests i think you can use the
MSXML-HTTP object within JS, but only if the objects are installed, and this
may only be avail inside IE5.5>
However, if you want to do it on the server you can do it using sockets.
someone helped me with this a month or so ago, mail me for the code.
