It is a multipart yes. I was able to use request.body.read() to read the requests' body in other platforms. It looks ok, and everything works. I even changed from using FormData in javascript to writing my custom body and so on. It all works fine except in iOS. There seems to be some kind of problem reading the body. And I can't even know what is there, since the server raises the 400 BAD REQ whenever I try to access it....
I don't understand very well how xmlhttprequest works and so on, I am only sending text right now, would I be able to solve this problem by changing the content-type header? I tried text/plain but that didn't work as well.... On Friday, March 28, 2014 2:03:31 AM UTC, Massimo Di Pierro wrote: > > Is this a normal multipart post request?
