[flexcoders] Re: Flex & PHP

You can use the pass token method that you describe, or you could
simply change your method from GET to POST:

var variables:URLVariables = new
URLVariables("param1=data1&param2=data2"); // Set your parameters as a
urlencoded string here

var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("http://www.yourdomain.com/yourpage.html";);

request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = variables;
navigateToURL(request, "_new");

Hope this helps!
