PDF XChange Forum

I'm using Javascript in PDF-XChange Editor to post information to a web service where it is read using php. It's all working great except I can't work out how to successfully post my data in the body of the post, using the oRequest parameter, and read it using php on the server. The only thing I could get to work is posting in the header using a redundant header field (I picked PRAGMA). This is obviously far from ideal.

This is my Javascript triggering the post (I want to use oRequest but instead have to use aHeaders):

postData = app.trustedFunction(function(f) {
app.beginPriv();
var urlStr = "http://mywebsite.com/postdata.php"
Net.HTTP.request({
cVerb: "POST",
cURL: urlStr,
// oRequest: util.streamFromString(JSONstr),
aHeaders:[{ name: "PRAGMA", value: syncs[f].JSONstr }],
oHandler: ajaxCallback
});
app.endPriv();
});


This is my php on the server (I want to use the first line, but have to use the second):

// $dataPOST = file_get_contents('php://input');
$dataPOST = $_SERVER['HTTP_PRAGMA'];


Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

There was an issue with handling oRequest parameter in Editor's code.
We have fixed this issue and the fix will be available in the next build.

Hi Ivan,

That's great! Thanks for the help. I'll download the next build when it's available.

Hi,

My company is looking to buy the corporate global pack of PDF-XChange Editor Plus, but having this fix implemented is necessary prior to making the purchase. When do you expect the new build with the fix will be released?

Thanks

Hello Marksanders,

We are hoping to release the next build close to the end of this month, give or take a few days for fine tuning. I hope that is not too long of a wait for you.

Kind regards,

Hi Daniel,

No, that's great. I'll come back and check for it then.

Thanks,
Mark
