Hi,
You should never be getting a 100 continue response from HttpClient - we
should ignore it for you.  This sounds like a bug that was recently fixed in
CVS.  Could you try grabbing the latest nightly build and seeing if the
problem still exists with that?  If not there are some troubleshooting tips
at http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/troubleshooting.html - if
you could run through those and send through whatever information you find
out it would be good.  Also, providing a wire trace would help a lot as well
- instructions are at
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html

Let me know how it goes...

Try reading the response again when you get 100 continue. This is not the
final response from the server, it just means that you can continue. Some
servers always send this response no matter what happens. You need to ignore
it.

I need to post a set of form values to an authorization service.  I couldn't
locate any example code that does this, does anyone know where I could find
some?

My initial attempts have been thwarted by the server's returning an HTTP
100 - Continue response.

This is the relevant part of what I have via trial and much error:


try {
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    client.setConnectionTimeout(5000);

    PostMethod post = new PostMethod(paymentServerURL);
    post.setFollowRedirects(false);
    post.setStrictMode(true);
    post.setRequestHeader("Content-Type",
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

    // Add the form values
    NameValuePair[] data = {
        new NameValuePair("x_First_Name", x_First_Name),
        new NameValuePair("x_Last_Name", x_Last_Name),
        new NameValuePair("x_Card_Num", x_Card_Num),
        new NameValuePair("x_Exp_Date", x_Exp_Date)
    };

    post.setRequestBody(data);
    client.executeMethod(post);

    try {
        responseContent = post.getResponseBodyAsString();
    } catch (NullPointerException e) {
        // do graceful stuff
    }

    responseCode = post.getStatusCode();
    responseMess = post.getStatusText();

    if (responseCode != 200) {
        // do graceful stuff
    }

    post.releaseConnection();

} catch (MoreExceptions me) {
    // do graceful stuff
}
