+.TH CURLOPT_HTTPPOST 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_HTTPPOST \- specify the multipart formpost content
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_HTTPPOST,
+ struct curl_httppost *formpost);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Tells libcurl you want a multipart/formdata HTTP POST to be made and you
+instruct what data to pass on to the server in the \fIformpost\fP argument.
+Pass a pointer to a linked list of curl_httppost structs as parameter. The
+easiest way to create such a list, is to use \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP as
+documented. The data in this list must remain intact until you close this curl
+handle again with \fIcurl_easy_cleanup(3)\fP.
+
+Using POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header.
+You can disable this header with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3)\fP.
+
+When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)\fP, it will automatically set
+\fICURLOPT_NOBODY(3)\fP to 0.
+.SH DEFAULT
+NULL
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+HTTP
+.SH EXAMPLE
+TODO
+.SH AVAILABILITY

+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is enabled, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
