[flexcoders] http request issue on linux

[ynotob]

I have the following http service defined

<mx:HTTPService
    id="httpListUser"
    url="{listUserUrl}"
    method="POST"
    fault="listUserFaultHandler(event);"
    resultFormat="e4x"
    result="listUserHandler(event)" />

I call it with the following code:

var params:Object = new Object();
params.request = "action.list.user";
params.email = txtEmail.text;
params.boson = new Date().getMilliseconds() // Added to prevent the result from 
being cached.
httpListUser.send(params);

This works fine on the server side when the flex application is run in a 
windows and a mac client but it failing when being run on a linux client.  On 
the server side the "request" parameter comes through as null.

The linux version of the flash player is 10r42.
