I'm pretty sure POST works with the Mac browser / PC Server combo. It just

doesn't work when going back and forth between Macs. Heck, it doesn't even

work when loading a text file locally, let alone over the net.


Does Flash send POST arguments exactly like a typical html form? If so, then

POST args to a Mac server should not be a problem.


Does Flash add special characters within the args?

Everything has lead me to believe this is a Mac server problem.

I'm not sure how a PC browser behaves with a Mac server.

The server  use WebSTAR 4.0...does it handle transactions differently?



Have a Great Day!  ;-)
