I don't understand why you need such complex code for doing such simple task
as building an url !
It's just a matter of a few string concatenation and calling UrlEncode for
the parameters.
HttpCli1.URL := 'http://' + MyHostVar + '/' + MyPathVar + '?' +
'ParamName1=' + UrlEncode(MyParamVar1) + '&' +
'ParamName2=' + UrlEncode(MyParamVar2) + '&' +
'ParamName3=' + UrlEncode(MyParamVar3);
