Can you get hold of the source code? I cannot[*] and reality is that there  
are web services you won't get the sources for. If you can for this  
example, I'll add a link to it in the project description. There is no need  
to include the PHP (or whatever) source of something in a Gambas project,  
especially of something that doesn't belong to the Gambas project _at all_.

It's as simple as Randall said: the source code of the web service you are  
calling is of no real value to you as a Gambas developer. It may be in your  
learning process about how CGI works but this is not the main point of a  
Gambas example for gb.net.curl. I don't know what Benoit thought when  
setting the WontFix status but this would be about my rationale. How did  
Caveat's answer help you anyway? It didn't include source code of the  
services he called either...?

And about a new HTTP POST example: I'm for it; this XMLRPC stuff is not the  
topic I would immediately present as an HTTP POST example (maybe as a  
second one). I look forward to your example. Also, my other suggestion [1]  
on gambas-user seems to be slipped through uncommented. Maybe you read it  
and tell me what you think.

Regards,
Tobi

[*] I grep'd through their repository and searched through pages that  
google thought were related. The only thing I can _guess_ is that the  
script may be somehow similar to the thing developed during the course of  
this tutorial[0].

I feel a little uncomfortable when a new person impolitely (!) rejects the  
advise of someone who had been around the project for much longer. (This is  
my personal opinion only and I cannot accuse you morally on its basis; feel  
free to ignore this point.) I just hope I'm not making noise too...
