Fair enough, fixed. I thought the comma improved readability though. When I read it, I pause there, as if there was a comma. >>>under 'get' >>> >>># Handle as if enctype was application/x-www-form-urlencoded >>> >>>I think you need to specify some kind of escaping on that data >>>before you handle it like x-www-form-urlencoded. >> >> I don't understand what you mean. > > The text for "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" says > # Use the encoded data set as the query value for a URI formed > # from the action URI and fetch it via HTTP GET. > > For x-www-form-urlencoded, the URL-escaping happens during the > encoding stage.

If you are handling the submission as if the enctype was application/x-www-form-urlencoded, then why would you encode the data set using application/x-www-form+xml? The whole _point_ is that you use application/x-www-form-urlencoded! This is the same as for multipart/form-data, in fact. >>>File upload & post : >>># Handle as if enctype was application/x-www-form-urlencoded. >>> >>>Does that mean you're sending the binary file data as the body >>>of the sms message without any kind of MIME information? >> >> No?

No? If you're handling it as application/x-www-form-urlencoded, then the encoded forhm data set only contains the filename.
