RE: [flexcoders] Re: Sending POST requests to php script??Help
You can, but you have to use Actionscript, not declarative mxml. Build the
request object in an AS function, something like this:
var oRequest:Object = {first:modelName.name.first, last:modelName.name.last,
email:modelName.name.email}
srv2.send(oRequest);
and remove the entire mx:request/ tag.
This approach is generally easier to work with because you can debug the
values you are sending to the server.

I don't want to bind the object. The {...} was suggested in a
previous post. I don't understand why I can't reference the object's
value in the HTTPService request.

I CAN access the flex object at run-time. And it need not be bindable.
For example:
Alert.show(modelName.name.first,title=modelName.name.first Value);
Correctly displays the modelName.name.first value. However, when I
access the same object in the HTTPService request, I can not access
the objects value. I don't know what the problem is.
This problem is driving me nuts.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Sending POST requests to php script??Help
Well, I believe the syntax is correct, at least!
The warnings are telling you something, in a way, which is that unless your
objects properties are bindable flex won't be able to detect changes in them at
runtime.
Hence it won't work if as you might expect you want to specify the request in
mxml like that.
It's just the way flex works, I found it a little hard to get used to at first.
You might have better results if you call an actionscript function to set the
request object instead.

This doe not work, as I am not trying to make the object bindable. I
am simply trying to reference the object values and pass them as part
of the HTTPService request.

The following code is not working as I would expect it to.
mx:HTTPService id=srv2 url=http://localhost/flex_web/addform.php;
resultFormat=object showBusyCursor=true
result=resultHandler(event) method=POST
mx:request xmlns=
firstmodelName.name.first/first
lastmodelName.name.last/last
emailmodelName.email/email
/mx:request
/mx:HTTPService
modelName is an object. I would like to send the POST variables to the
php script using dot notation as shown above. The problem I am having
is that it sends the entire string modelName.xxx.xxx instead of the
actual object field. I think this is a dereferencing issue, but I do
not know how to fix it.
Can someone help?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Sending POST requests to php script??Help
Yes, building the request object declaratively and binding in the values is
very hard to debug.
Build the request object in AS, so you can inspect the values you are
sending. You also will not need to depend on bindable properties.
