I don’t think it is a problem with HTTPS. With Google and Stack overflow’s help, I found this website - http://httpbin.org - you can send a POST request to https://httpbin.org/post and it will return the POST data to you (in JSON). I ran your test against both the http:// and https:// URLs and both worked. > The other difference is the UTF8 encoding, but it's my understanding that > servers always expect to receive that. I don’t think that all servers expect to receive UTF-8. The character encoding can be specified in configuration files. > Thanks very much to you and Charles for your tests.

It is possible but this may be more useful: PHP: <?php var_dump($_POST); ?> It will return the POST data received by PHP. For example: LiveCode Message Box: put textEncode("{ " & quote & "é" & quote & ": 1}", "UTF-8") into tJSON put "json=" before tJSON post tJSON to URL "http://localhost/jacque.php" put textDecode(it, "UTF-8") This is what it returns: array(1) { ["json"]=> string(10) "{ "é": 1}" } Hope this helps.
