I'm fairly sure you don't NEED a channelset. From your code, it looks like you have the URL set wrong.
First off, you are not binding urlInput.text to the url property of the HTTPService - you are just passing the string "urlInput.text". Secondly, Do you really want to set useProxy to true? I have never needed to do that. Also make sure urlInput.text is set to a full URL (http://etc). Try this... <mx:HTTPService id="connectPG" result="resulthandler(event)" fault="fault_handler(event)" resultFormat="text" showBusyCursor="true" url="{urlInput.text}" useProxy="false" method="POST"> <mx:request xmlns=""> <username>{userName.text}</username> <password>{userPW.text}</password> </mx:request> </mx:HTTPService> HTH Steve --- In [email protected], "ciminop" <cimi...@...> wrote: > > I must be missing something since I'm trying to do something fairly basic. It really can't be this difficult, can it? I'm trying to use the HTTPService to post to a form. No web services.
