Hello All,

I have a question regarding the curl statements. Our API 1.1
(http://opentox.org/dev/apis/api-1.1) states that "Parameters are posted
with a "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" HTTP header." 

I see two ways using curl here: The first one is described on the API
page: 
curl -X GET
http://{server}/dataset?compound_uris[]={compound_uri1}&compound_uris[]={compound_uri2})

The second one is (according to
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#-d--data) to attach the parameters
with -d to the curl call.

The first version however seems not to be working with our
implementation. Can you tell me if the way the URL is constructed is
wrong? 
curl -X POST
http://localhost:8180/OpenTox/algorithm/kNNregression?dataset_uri=http://ambit.uni-plovdiv.bg:8080/ambit2/dataset/23&prediction_feature=http://ambit.uni-plovdiv.bg:8080/ambit2/feature/12818

best regards,
Tobias
