It depends on what browser facility you use. Submitting a regular form from an HTML page, the content will always be url-encoded. If you use XmlHttpRequest and POST, your Javascript is responsible for supplying all the entity data, including doing any url-encoding or not. Restlet's Form abstraction assumes url-encoding (which is the correct behavior), so you can't use it if the data is not url-encoded. But you don't need to armor your JSON object in a Form, you can skip the Form wrapper altogether and just structure your entire entity in JSON, which is what most folks do -- then you can leverage the JSON facilities in Restlet directly. - R
