Hi Bill, Ah.... I think I have it now? In both examples above the Type of the $.ajax is set to POST... so it is *not* a GET request...
however, in the string above I didn't have spaces - so it failed - when the Object in the second example was sent (which worked correctly) - obviously the spaces were correctly encoded... So when you pass params to a $.ajax and you don't URLEncode them into the QueryString then the spaces will be stripped... Better to pass as an object (which I now am!) But it's still strange that when the data is passed as a String with spaces that it works on APACHE & PHP.. very odd.
