The most common reason for the 'Not all request variables are set - no POST parameters' bug isn't a broken client but a broken server. For no seemingly apparent reason, the server will give up waiting for incoming data and just claim that you've not sent any post paramters, despite the fact that they arrive at the server a moment later.
