XML POST to given URL

[chuy08 0]

I am new to webservices and am at a loss with this one.  I have bought several books to try and help as well as countless Google searches to try and solve me problem to no avail.  Maybe I am over complicating the situation based on all the different things I have attempted to read over the last couple of days.  The situation is pretty simple.  Given an XML file like so:

<Borrower>
      <FirstName>Bob</FirstName>
      <LastName>Smith</LastName>
      <Address>1234 White lane</Address>
</Borrower>

How can I post this to a given URL:

http://consumer.example.com/xmlparse.aspx

I have read many things on DOM or SAX for parsing of XML documents and many things regarding REST, XML-RPC, or SOAP but I just can't get any easy to follow examples that fit my needs.  Any help greatly appreciated.

You can use cURL or sockets to post information to a url from inside of a php script.
