The possible parameters in the request content are the following:
- title : The title of the entry. Optional.
- excerpt : An excerpt of the entry. Optional.
- url : The permalink for the entry. Like any permalink, this should point as closely as possible to the actual entry on the HTML page, as it will be used when linking to the entry in question. Required. If a client neglects to send a url, the server MUST respond with an error message.
- blog_name : The name of the weblog to which the entry was posted. Optional.
All parameters is POST format.
To send a ping, the client sends an HTTP POST request to the TrackBack Ping URL.
The client MUST send a Content-Type HTTP header, with the content type set to application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
The client should include the character encoding of the content being sent (title, excerpt, and weblog name) in the charset attribute of the Content-Type header.
