Please Help on Synchronous Post...

Hi All:
 
We are trying to do a synchronous Post which, by nature, should block execution and then continue once the post is completed.  I have included some code below that calls HTPostAbsolute followed by HTEventList_newLoop(). The terminate handler fires but the HTEventList_newLoop() function never RETURNS.  Nothing following the HTEventList_newLoop() call ever executes.  However, control is given back to the test application.  In other words, I press a button on a simple GUI to perform a Post and I can press the button again before the Post is completed. If I wait long enough, the POST will result in a successful Response.  This leads me to believe the Post is working correctly, it just doesn't seem to be synchronous.... 

I have scoured the archives and found some discussion on this topic but not any sample code.  Any help would be greatly appreciated...
