Why not submit as a regular POST ?
-------------------snippet---------------------
var params:Object = new Object()
params.UserName = PostUserNameTF.text
PostUser.send(params).............
----------Then handle the POST in PHP.-----------------------
foreach($_POST AS $key => $values) { ${$key} = $values; }
$query = "INSERT INTO Users (`UserName`) VALUES ('".$UserName."');
