[Twisted-Python] twisted.web.client POST data
I'm trying to send a post request like so getPage('http://localhost/test/test/', method='POST' postdata='test=asdf') But the server script doesnt get any post arguments. I was looking at the code for web.client and cant see where im doing wrong here. Any ideas what might be the problem? I'm using an svn checkout of Twisted.
