Jeff Thanks for the reminder about the additional ATG methods to the query parameters (getURLParameter()). However, that didn't help in this case. Turns out I had to append my query parameters to the URL of the HTTPService in ActionScript (i.e. getSponsor.url += "?o=sponsor&a=put") to get Flex to send them.

Possibly the issue is due to the fact that you have both query string parameters and POST data parameters in the same request. I think that ATG used to have a bug where the query parameters are not returned by the getParameter method if the request has method=POST. They expose another method on the DynamoHttpServletRequest called "getQueryParameter" which will always return the query parameters. I vaguely recall that bug got fixed at some point but it has been a long time since I worked for ATG. One nice thing about ATG is that if you do a "toString" on the request object, it dumps out all of the state of the request. That might be a way to ensure that the query parameters are at least making it to the server in the URL.

I also noticed about the mx:objects in the post. It was an error and I was getting really screwy data on the server. I've since changed the bindings to point to the text property of the objects and the post body is being sent correctly (I also had to add contentType="application/xml" to my HTTPService. After making those changes, I am still seeing the same behavior as before (with a valid post body, now). The server platform is ATG (Java servlet based). When I try to extract the 2 request parameters, I get null for both of them. Thanks!

Also, you are passing an mx:Object in the post body to the server. Is that working? What does it look like on the server? What is the server platform?

I created my HTTPService as such: <mx:HTTPService id="getSponsor" method="POST" resultFormat="e4x" result="getResultOK(event)" fault="getResultFault(event)" url="http://www.mysite.com/get> <mx:request> <o>sponsor</o> <a>put</a> </mx:request> </mx:HTTPService> And call it like this: private function addSponsor():void { getSponsor.send(sponsorModel); } With sponsorModel: <mx:Model id="sponsorModel"> <sponsor> <id>{txtId}</id> <name>{tiName}</name> <imageUrl>{tiImageUrl}</imageUrl> <linkUrl>{tiLinkUrl}</linkUrl> </sponsor> </mx:Model> It looks like the request parameters are not being sent (I am not seeing them on the server). Is this supported in Flex 2? Thanks Todd
