could it be a "same origin policy" issue?

It used to be the case that hosted mode was more relaxed on this
restriction and this could catch you out when you moved to web mode
where browsers strictly enforce the same origin policy.

Simply put, the call to your PHP file must go to the same origin that
the application has been served from - even the port numbers must be
the same too, so "localhost" and "localhost:8080" are different in the
eyes of singe origin policy.

If you're 100% sure that the application is being served from
"localhost" and your PHP call is only being made to "localhost" then
maybe you could add some more logging code to your catch statement of
the try/catch block surrounding the request builder to see what is
happening.
