I took a look at this. The key difference, and where the flash player (I
think)breaks this standard, is with posting data. It doesn't conform to this
multi-part rfc. Specifically in section 3.3 it says "the HTTP protocol can
transport arbitrary BINARY data". That's what the flash player does. It
arbitrarily puts AMF into the body, and gives the content-type /
content-length. hmm.

Here is a sample conf I'm thinking will maybe do the trick.. Based off of
one of the examples..

########### URL SECTION ##################################

# GET-part
URL= http://10.30.6.42:8888/vax/root/Admin
URL_SHORT_NAME="Login-GET"
#URL_DONT_CYCLE = 1
REQUEST_TYPE=GET
TIMER_URL_COMPLETION = 4000
TIMER_AFTER_URL_SLEEP =0

# POST-part
URL=""
URL_SHORT_NAME="Login-POST"
URL_USE_CURRENT= 1
#URL_DONT_CYCLE = 1
REQUEST_TYPE=POST
MULTIPART_FORM_DATA="htmlcode=<HTML></HTML>;type=application/x-amf"
MULTIPART_FORM_DATA="file=@myamf.amf"

I'm also wondering about taking out the file=? so like so?
MULTIPART_FORM_DATA="@myamf.amf"

To try and get arbitrary binary in the body..

What do you think?

Anyway, I'm gonna try some of this out tomorrow. hopefully i'll be able to
get something working..
