Answer 1

application/x-www-form-urlencoded

There's your answer. It's getting posted, you're just looking for the variables in $_POST array. What you really want is $_REQUEST. Contrary to the name, $_POST contains input variables submitted in the body of the request, regardless of submission method. $_GET contains variables parsed from the query string of the URL. If you just want submitted variables, use the $_REQUEST global.

If you expect to be receiving file uploads, than you want to create a new array including the contents of $_FILES as well:

$arguments = $_REQUEST + $_FILES;
