Here is the HTTP request sent by the app:
POST testresults.php HTTP/1.1

I've copied this as exactly as possible from the HTTP request sent by
the forms version (I used a Firefox plugin called Live HTTP Headers to
capture the headers) Note: There is a blank line at the end after the
final boundary.
The server response is :
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Request header field is missing colon separator.

Below is the HTTP request submitted by the form (copied from Live HTTP
Headers) which works fine.
POST /testresults.php HTTP/1.1
Host: www.(mydomain).org
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1)

this is a test of the form
-----------------------------77877924991
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="cmd"
Submit
-----------------------------77877924991--
Now the only differences I can detect are the referrer (which has no
relevance to this particular application) and the boundary string. As a
test previously I've copied the same boundary string just to be certain
and there are no differences. Each line is terminated by "\r\n" as it
should be.
Thanks guys, your help is much appreciated.
