// Optionally, set properties of the HttpWebRequest, such as:
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.Deflate | DecompressionMethods.GZip;
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

// Request.Accept, or other headers via the Request.Headers collection.

// Set the POST request body data. In this example, the POST data is in 
// application/x-www-form-urlencoded format.
string postData = "myparam1=myvalue1&myparam2=myvalue2";

    using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
    {
        responseFromRemoteServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
    }
