Apologies; that should have been:
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

The FAQ presents little [no?] information about `encoding' related
issues which do get asked frequently here. Many of them are along the
lines of:
- escape / unescape functions don't work well for Non-ASCII character
- encodeURICompon ent to be used for encoding URI components rather
than encodeURI
- Setting the HTTP Request Header `Content-Type: x-www-
formurlencoded' when making asynchronous requests doesn't
automagically encode the data being submitted.

These are some of the points which have come across in this group in
the past few days related to encoding. It would be nice to have
someone come up with a short FAQ entry related to this topic.

Yep. That could go in the proposed "Communicat ing with the Server" section.

I haven't gotten much diversity of feedback on the proposed sections yet.
