Blackberry: (Java) Post/Get data

Question

I'm writing a little application for my BlackBerry and I need to send some data to a webpage (Via GET or POST)

Can anyone advise on the way to do this with the BlackBerry.

You need javax.microedition.io.HttpConnection for this. The linked javadoc contains basic code examples for both GET and POST. Here's an extract of the GET example:

 void getViaStreamConnection(String url) throws IOException {
     StreamConnection c = null;
     InputStream s = null;
     try {
         c = (StreamConnection)Connector.open(url);
         s = c.openInputStream();
         int ch;
         while ((ch = s.read()) != -1) {
             ...
         }
     } finally {
         if (s != null)
             s.close();
         if (c != null)
             c.close();
     }
 }
