I have a parameter that I want to pass to a URL as a GET var. But the paramater value has a null byte in it. Basically I want to load a URL like this
http://example.com/test.php?foo=bar%00bar I tried doing var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://example.com/test.php'); request.data = 'foo=bar%00bar'; var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loader.load(request); But I get "Error #2032: Stream Error" when i try to load it. If I remove the null byte (%00) it works fine. I've also tried using the URLVariables class var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); variables.foo = 'bar' + String.fromCharCode(0) + 'bar'; request.data = variables; But that ignores everything after the null byte, and the request ends up being http://example.com/test.php?foo=bar I've even tried request.data = new URLVariables('foo=bar%00bar'); But that silently removes the null byte, and the request ends up being http://example.com/test.php?foo=barbar Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong here? Thanks malone
