With POST, it should be seeing "form" parameters, in name=value pairs.
I do not know CF, but in asp.net, the parameters would be available
through Request.Form("action")What is the tracker.cfm page returning? Have you given up on the WebService?

I am just trying to send 4 parameters over to a CFC or CFM page to insert into the database and both WebService and HTTPRequest are giving me fits. Ok here is the scenerio: When the user watches a video, it starts a timer, when the user either exits the page or clicks the 'stop' button it triggers a function that sends out 3 pieces of info: what video, how long, and whether they clicked stop or left. I am packaging that information into an Object and sending it to a .cfm page with a query on it, ready to insert. What exactly is my .cfm page 'seeing' sent to it? Are they form., url., or just the stuct name? Here is my AS code: trackInfo.duration = myTimer.currentCount; trackInfo.action = "Video Stopped"; trackInfo.source = source; var service:HTTPService = new HTTPService(); service.url = "https://ummciisdevweb22.med.umich.edu/videotracking/tracker.cfm";; service.method = "POST"; service.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, countHandler); service.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, alertFault); service.send(trackInfo); How should I constuct the query on the tracker.cfm page? Something like: <cfquery name="countIt" datasource="#request.dsn#"> Insert Into tracker (clickCount, duration, action, videoFile, datePlayed) VALUES(1, #trackInfo.duration#, '#trackInfo.action#', '#trackInfo.source#', #Now()#) </cfquery>
