Programmatically Post to ASP page and read results

I want to be able to POST some values to an external web site's ASP page and then programmatically read the results. The external page has no query string paramaters so I can't just create the url and read the page instead I need to create some web requests and deal with that object. This is how I did it, basically a mash up of what I found on the web but I believe more concise and clear.

//set our data
ASCIIEncoding encoding = new ASCIIEncoding();
string postData = "firstname=" + fname.Text;
postData += ("&lastname=" + lname.Text);

//compose the submission
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://somepage.asp");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.ContentLength = postData.Length;

// Post to the form.
StreamWriter swRequestWriter = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream());
swRequestWriter.Write(postData);
swRequestWriter.Close();

//get the response
HttpWebResponse hwrWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

// Read the response
StreamReader srResponseReader = new
StreamReader(hwrWebResponse.GetResponseStream());
string strResponseData = srResponseReader.ReadToEnd();
srResponseReader.Close();

// Display the response on my page
Response.Write(strResponseData);

Now what I plan to do is screen scrape the result page and get the data I need. Ah regular expressions, I hate those. Stay tuned for that post in the next couple of days...
