I'm a noob...but this is how I send data to my rails server...
<mx:HTTPService id="editCustomerUpdate" contentType="application/xml"
url="http://nycopt:3000/customers/edit"; method="POST">
<mx:request xmlns="">
<customer>
<firm>{firm.text}</firm>
<acct>{account.text}</acct>
<subacct>{subacct.text}</subacct>
<cmta>{cmta.text}</cmta>
<address1>{address1.text}</address1>
<address2>{address2.text}</address2>
<city>{city.text}</city>
<state>{state.text}</state>
<zip>{zip.text}</zip>
<trader>{trader.text}</trader>
<trader_phone>{trader_phone.text}</trader_phone>
<acct_pay_contact>{acct_pay_contact.text}</acct_pay_contact>
<acct_pay_phone>{acct_pay_phone.text}</acct_pay_phone>
</customer>
</mx:request>
</mx:HTTPService>
....cut above...
mx:FormItem label="AP Phone">
<mx:TextInput id="acct_pay_phone" width="100%"
text="{acct_pay_phone}" />
</mx:FormItem>
</mx:Form>
<mx:HBox horizontalAlign="center" width="100%">
<mx:Button
click="editCustomerUpdate.send();PopUpManager.removePopUp(this)"
label="Update"/>
