PostFormData and PostAdd

[mshah15]

I am using PostAdd and PostFormData to post data to a php webpage. However, quick macros seems to ignore all of the PostAdd statements and just looks at the connect and PostFormData statements..
I am using this to post large amounts of text to a php webpage that posts to a database. I won't be able to use IntGetFile because the sum of text i am uploading may have special characters and may disrupt the url. Here is my code.

x.Connect("xxx"); str s
x.PostAdd("username" "mshah15")
...
x.PostFormData("xxx.php" 0 s)
out s

The out statement shows that it is not inserting any of the PostAdd statements.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Maybe the posted data is too long. I don't know what is the limit. I tested now with short strings, and it works.

Web page http://www.quickmacros.com/test/post.php

Code:

<?php
var_dump($_POST);
?>

Code:

Copy      Help

Http x.Connect("quickmacros.com"); str s
x.PostAdd("username" "mshah15")
x.PostAdd("z" "x")
x.PostFormData("test/post.php" 0 s)
out s

Output

array(2) {
["username"]=>
string(7) "mshah15"
["z"]=>
string(1) "x"
}

As of now I too am testing with small strings, but still, I am unable to get the proper output.
Could it be possible that the cause of this problem is that when i use PostAdd, my parameters are like so:

x.PostAdd("username" username) ;; username is a string variable

This works too.

This doesn't seem to be working for me, but I am able to do the same with IntGetFile. The only problem is, I have one string that can be include special characters like &,',",=,%, which is messing up the url and it ends up not working. Is there any get around like putting a slash in front of the special characters to show them has normal text?
