Google Translate API for .Net is not working

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1. I have tried to create a simple test application with textbox as Input 
and Label as output
2. On Button click event I have following code.
protected void btnTranslateIt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string Text = txtInput.Text;            
            Text = 
Google.API.Translate.Translator.Translate(Text,Google.API.Translate.Languag
e.English, 
Google.API.Translate.Language.French,Google.API.Translate.TranslateFormat.t
ext);
            lblOutput.Text = Text;            
        }

3. When I copied artile from website and tried to paste to see how it 
translate it was giving exception.

In above code, I tried both Format "Text" and "Html" while writing code.  I 
even tried to translate without explicitly passing format parameter but 
none of them worked.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
GoogleTranslateAPI_0.1.zip. and OS - Win. XP

Following is exception details
Google.API.Translate.TranslateException was unhandled by user code

The issue appears to be that this library is still using GET instead of POST, 
and GET calls have some sort of unpredictable limit to the text length. I 
reported this issue last year. You have to translate smaller strings as 
separate calls and then concat them together, which is a real pain in the butt.
