Gateway. DoRequest

Used to do an actual request. Pass in an anon object with the connection specifics. For example:

var httpcon = new HTTPConnectFactory().getInstance();
var remote = new JSRemote(httpcon, true);

remote.doRequest({
    method:"POST",
    url:"http://mysite.com/handler.php",
    handler:function(e,conn){ alert(e) },
    body:""
});

Parameters

method = GET,POST,DELETE,PUT,etc
url = where to call to
handler = the call back function
error_handler = error handler
body = the body data (for posts)
fields = for form posts, the fields
extra_headers = any extra headers to pass along
function = the SOAP function (if a soap request)
username = the http username
password = the http password
encoding = default is utf-8

Gateway. DoFormPostRequest

This method implements a multi-field form submission via a POST, using the ‘fields’ object as a set of name:value pairs to pass as the form fields. It simply delegates to doPostRequest for the actual processing; the only functionality is serializing the fields.

Note that this method’s parameter ordering does NOT correspond to doPostRequest’s.

Parameters

url	the url to POST to
