Subject: [net/http] how to post form data ?

here is what i do :

--BEGIN--

require 'net/http'
include Net

$host = 'localhost'
$path = '/test.php'


HTTP::Proxy($proxy_addr,$proxy_port).start($host) { |http|
        $topost = 'b=2'
        puts 'posting : '+$topost
        response , = http.post($path,$topost)
        puts response.body
}

--END--

test.php is a simple php script that shows all the GET/POST variables

the output of the script is :

--BEGIN--

posting : b=2
Array
(
)
Array
(
)

--END--

what's wrong ?

thx
