Subject: Re: Net::HTML#post_form with ASP

Hello,

The fix did not work.I still get the same error. There is some bug here.

I've tested an app i coded last month and it still works:

url = URI.parse("http://translate.google.com/translate_t")
g_res = Net::HTTP::post_form(url, { 'text' => "#{string}", 'langpair'
=> "#{from_lang}|#{to_lang}" } )
p g_res.body

Perhaps it has something to do with the file type you POST to? (php/cfm/asp)

Regards,

Ricardo
