Using the Jersey client to do a POST operation

Not done this yet myself, but a quick bit of Google-Fu reveals a tech tip on blogs.oracle.com with examples of exactly what you ask for.

Example taken from the blog post:

MultivaluedMap formData = new MultivaluedMapImpl();
formData.add("name1", "val1");
formData.add("name2", "val2");
ClientResponse response = webResource
    .type(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED_TYPE)
    .post(ClientResponse.class, formData);

That any help?
