Good afternoon,

I'm having trouble calling the post method using REST calls with a webservice.

I would like to send an atom entry document containing my new information to a webservice using APIs.

I already have the URI, and have gotten as far as:


HttpWebRequest new_request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(sec_req);
new_request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username,password);
new_request.Method = "POST";
new_request.ContentType = "application/atom+xml";

I would now like to send an atom entry element which requires:

<title type="text"> // I am going to have a title ex: "EXAMPLE TITLE"
<link href="link_url"/> // I will provide a url such as example.com
<content type="html"> // keep this as "html"

I think I am supposed to use string builder and send this as a header or something along those lines but I am not quite sure how it works, and what syntax to use. (I am creating a new bookmark using an API). Correct me if i'm wrong, when I send the header(in a string) to the service, if it goes through, then my bookmark will be created?

PLEASE HELP!!! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
