      Hi @louis,

      Currently, it's not possible to specify headers (e.g. Content-Type) with UrlLoader. I'm adding it http://bugs.giderosmobile.com/issues/95 It'll be available with the next version.

      @Atilim, that will be cool, if you have a table for data instead of the string, then you can allocate for headers, and body and any other stuff that one would want to add to it.

      @OZApps Yes, the header information is given as a table and body is still string. But I haven't combine these two into a table (to be backward compatible).
      local url = "<a href="http://www.example.com/parse.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/parse.php</a> "
local header = {}
header["Content-Type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
local body = "key1=value1&key2=value2"
UrlLoader.new(url, UrlLoader.POST, header, body)
      And if you don't want to specify any headers, you can omit it:
      UrlLoader.new(url, UrlLoader.POST, body)
      I think it's still simple. I hope I don't need to add an extra parameter in the future.
