Ok seriously this is hell. I've been searching these forums for information as well as google but recieving deadends all over the place. goToAndLearn doesn help as they dont use POSTvars, and other tutorials either use old methods that dont work in new php or the HTTP_POST_VARS which is too old. All I want to do is send a string 'name' to php for store in an SQL database for later recollection. Seriously this is getting old fast, I have used getURL, x.send, sendAndLoad, loadVars, etc, and I cant figure it out, no data is passed. NONE.
