Thanks Rob, The problem was because I wasn't encoding the URL. Wired, I would expect the whole request to fail if I don't encode the URL.
Another thing, I received 0 (zero) as status code, i checked the forums and it seems that it is related to SOP as you suspected. Would having the PHP files in the same www folder as the GWT application solve this issue? Are there any workarounds to SOP? Apologies if my post is a duplicate but I am facing what Rob faced, the thread is not updated.
