Question

Hi I am trying to call a webService in titanium using json.
That webService does not take any argument so i just have to call it.

here is my code:

var xhr = Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient();
xhr.setTimeout(10000);

xhr.open("POST","http://mytesturl.net/services/json/system.connect");  
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
xhr.send();
xhr.onerror = function() {

Titanium.API.info("some thing is wrong in calling");
};

xhr.onload = function() {

Titanium.API.info("The API response is " + this.responseText);
};

on the log i get this error :

The API response is {"#error":true,"#data":"Invalid method ","#response_code":405}

I thought the url is wrong but when i tried to call the same web services from my terminal i.e by using curl utility

curl --data method=system.connect http://mytesturl.net/services/json

i got the response what i needed..
what i am doing wrong here??

You’re not passing any payload to the server, but instead try to pass the method as a part of the URL. You’ll need to add the method=system.connect as the data argument in the send function call and change the URL to be same as in the curl request (http://mytesturl.net/services/json).
