Question

Is it possible to send a JSON object through an URL?

I made scaffold in a rails test app where the controller receives a JSON object. In another hand, I have a GUI build it in Flex. How should I send the JSON from my flex app?

When I try to access through this url:

http://localhost:3000/test

the rails app inserts an empty object but when I add a parameter Flex show me the following message: InvocationTargetException:The URL is not valid.

How I can send it without another library like RubyAMF….? Is it possible to send it just using flex > json > rails ?

Answer 1

solve it with:

req = new URLRequest("http://localhost:3000/tests/"+market_id);
    jrwloader  = new URLLoader();
    params = new URLVariables();
    req.data = strXml.toString();                               
    req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;                                                         
    req.requestHeaders.push(new URLRequestHeader("X-HTTP-Method-Override", URLRequestMethod.PUT));                                                          
    **req.requestHeaders.push(new URLRequestHeader("Content-type", 'application/xml'));**             jrwloader.load(req);

thanks all!
