Yui POST connection with Firefox

[dexeloper]

A Yui question.
I'm struggling to make a POST (as opposed to a GET) connection in Firefox. I think it's a known issue and there must be a workaround but I can't find it. The Yui forum I find a mess.
Anyone know? Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Here is a section of code I use:

    var message=document.getElementById('message').value;
	message = encodeURIComponent(message);
	document.getElementById('message').value = "";
	document.getElementById('message').focus();
    var url="bottom_execute.pl";
    var params = "Message="+message+"&Random="+Math.random();
    [blue]xhr.open("POST",url,true);
    xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-[URL unfurl="true"]www-form-urlencoded");[/URL]
	xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
	xhr.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");[/blue]
	xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
		if(xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
			document.getElementById("DisplayA").innerHTML=xhr.responseText;
		}
	}
    xhr.send(params);

Possibly post the code you have tried if you are still having problems.

You don't use Yui.

I didn't know what YUI is.

The Yahoo User Interface for Ajax. Take a look

I think I've figured it out. I have to build the form data and pass it as a variable when Posting.
