Hello XP,
I'm not a network guy, but I imagine you may find that some users (i.e. those
using proxy servers, or those using certain browsers) may encounter problems
when attempting to post non-url encoded characters. In fact, it may not work
for anybody. Traditionally, setting up a scheme like this in php would simply
request php to build the data from the posted string:
<php>
$data = $_POST;
// where data then looks like the following, based on an ajax-posted
object run through Hash.toQueryString()
$data = array(
'method'=>'foo::bar',
'params'=>array('some data',array('some nested'=>'data')),
'id'=>'1123123123'
);
</php>
If you WOULD like to try sending JSON, you could override the original
prototype Hash.toQueryString method by defining it after inclusion of
prototype something like so:
Object.extend(Hash, {
toQueryString: function(obj) {
JSON.stringify(obj);
}
});
then, in the parameters, send a simple object like so:
new Ajax.Request('server.php',
{
method: 'post',
parameters: {
method: 'foo::bar',
params: data,
id: new Date().getTime()
}), ...
If you do try it, let us know what you find.

Ken Snyder
