Hello All,

I’m facing a very strange problem today. I’m trying to integrate/communicate my flash application with RoR using JSON.

String thing that I met is … when we send data with request method = POST, flash unable to reach API at server and got IOError but same URL works when flash send request with GET. As I have long string to post we have to use POST.

Does any one else facing such issue? Let me know if any one has any clue for that.
