Using http format in sending XML message to client/server

I am trying to create a client-server application that would communicate using xml in a http format.

I already researched about client-server transferring file using TCP/IP. It uses tcclient/tcplistener which worked very fine. However I was trying to build an application that could use an http format of request to do the transferring of file.

I also had downloaded some codes for an implementation of an http server but the http client needs to be a web browser, is there a way that I could just have a c# windows FORM as a client and pass those http webrequest/webresponse classes ?

Is there any suggestion that you can give?

Thank you very much in advance. I hope you could help.

I also think should have a look at Windows Communication Foundation, it gives a lot of possibilities, settings and security. I recommend the following books to read, that also helped me:

Hope it helps you.

I think what you're doing here is basically reinventing Web Services. For .NET, you can either look at ASMX Web Services or at WCF.
