connecting to url [C] Connecting to a URL

[whitebread]

I have a Windows console program which collects 4 strings. How hard would it be to either have the program send an email or connect to a URL (either by POST or GET)?

Well, you've linked this thread as C, so you'd need a C library for email in order to send email, here is an SMTP option (there are others probably better ones too)

or C++ you'll also need to go locate a valid library.

In C# however (assuming .net) you can use this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.mail.smtpclient.aspx
