    text
    copied!<p>I've never used ASIHTTPRequest before, nor have I dealt with posting anything from an iPhone to a web service before. I'd like to eventually save the posted variables to a database, but I am unsure if they are being posted properly at this time. When I run the following script in Xcode, I see the correct html code with inserted variables logged in the debug window. My concern is that I don't see the same thing when I access the page in the browser. My guess is this is to be expected, but I'm not completely sure. Here is what I am doing:</p> <pre><code>string1 = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"Did this"]; string2 = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"come through?"]; NSString *urlString = @"http://www.myurl.com/post_test.php"; NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString: urlString]; ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:url]; [request setPostValue:string1 forKey:@"String1"]; [request setPostValue:string2 forKey:@"String2"]; NSString *response = nil; [request startSynchronous]; NSError *error = [request error]; if (!error) { response = [request responseString]; NSLog(@"Response GOOD: %@", response); } else { NSLog(@"Response BAD: %@", error); } </code></pre> <p>This prints the html code from the web page with the uploaded variables correctly, but if I go to the page in my browser the php variables are null. Here is the small php script:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $received = array(); $received = $_POST; $print_received = print_r($received, TRUE); echo "&lt;pre&gt;$print_received&lt;/pre&gt;"; $var1 = $received['String1']; $var2 = $received['String2']; echo "The message received was: $var1 $var2&lt;/br&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I haven't added the mysql connection code yet because I want to make sure this posting business is successful first.</p>
