Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1.3) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux As far as I understand, this is similar to bug #49746, which is marked as resolved but with the explicit comment, that only some bugs of this category are fixed, while other problems remain. I have not found any other bug-reports covering this specific issue, so opening a new report. Problem: In a flash movie, using getURL ("[url]", "[target]", "POST"); will not work. Instead the URL will be fetched with "GET", resulting in a loss of all data that should have been transmitted in the POST. I first suspected, this might be related to the "Warn on submitting data unencrypted"-option, but disabling that option did not change the effect. The same movie on the same machine, using the same flash-plugin, but in Mozilla 1.4 works as expected.
POST works for me, so please provide an example that does not work.
Created attachment 2588 [details] Testcase of failing POST in a flash-movie Unpack this in a directory on a PHP-enabled web-server. Then point your browser to the post.swf -movie in that directory on the server. You should be immediately redirected to the post.php -script, which will either show "The problem is reproducible" (Konqueror 3.1.3) or "The problem is not reproducible" (Mozilla 1.4). The flash-movie contains nothing but the following Actionscript in the first Frame: stop (); _root.test = "not "; _root.getUrl ("post.php", "_top", "POST"); The php-script basically just echoes $HTTP_POST_VARS['test']. The problem can also be seen in the web-servers access-log, which shows a GET for konqueror but a POST for Mozilla.
Ok I have it doing POST now, but the data is coming through incorrect. Once this is fixed I will commit.
