Just found out about HTTPSocket. It seems to be the class which should be used for http requests. It also can do basic authentication.
Thanks

Is there a bug in this method?
An association in the args dictionary will contain the name of a prameter and its value as a string. The iteration assoc value do: [ :value | will operate on characters of the value which I think is not intended.
....
args associationsDo: [ :assoc |
assoc value do: [ :value |
first ifTrue: [ first := false ] ifFalse: [ argsString nextPut: $& ].
argsString nextPutAll: assoc key encodeForHTTP.
argsString nextPut: $=.
argsString nextPutAll: value encodeForHTTP. ] ].
should be?
