| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| WebException | The URI formed by combining BaseAddress, and address is invalid. -or- data is Nothing. -or- An error occurred while opening the stream. -or- There was no response from the server hosting the resource. -or- The Content-type header value is not Nothing and is not application/x-www-form-urlencoded. |
The UploadValues method sends a NameValueCollection to a resource using the method specified in the method parameter and returns any response from the server. This method blocks while uploading the data. To continue executing while waiting for the server's response, use one of the UploadValuesAsync methods.
If the Content-type header is Nothing, the UploadValues method sets it to application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
If the method parameter specifies a verb that is not understood by the server, the underlying protocol classes determine what occurs. Typically, a WebException is thrown with the Status property set to indicate the error.
If the BaseAddress property is not an empty string ("") and address does not contain an absolute URI, address must be a relative URI that is combined with BaseAddress to form the absolute URI of the requested data. If the QueryString property is not an empty string, it is appended to address.
