		"description": "When using the HTTPClient in Titanium Mobile, the documentation (http://docs.appcelerator.com/titanium/2.1/#!/api/Titanium.Network.HTTPClient-method-send) says that if you pass a serializable JavaScript object, it will automatically turn it into form-encoded POST data. However, this breaks when your data contains an array.\r\n\r\nUsing the free service httpbin (http://httpbin.org/) to view the POST data that is sent, you can see that the array is not properly encoded. By sending POST data to httpbin.org/post, we can see the POST data that Titanium sends.\r\n\r\nExample code: \r\n\r\n{code:js}\r\nvar xhr = Ti.Network.createHTTPClient();\r\nxhr.onload = function(ev) {\r\n  Ti.API.info(this.responseText);\r\n};\r\nxhr.open('POST','http://httpbin.org/post');\r\nxhr.send({\r\n  'test_text': 'testing',\r\n  'test_array': ['one','two','three']\r\n});\r\n{code}\r\n\r\nThe response received looks like this:\r\n\r\n{code}\r\n{\r\n   \"files\": {},\r\n   \"form\": {\r\n      \"test_array\": \"[Ljava.lang.Object;@41a6e560\",\r\n      \"test_text\": \"testing\"\r\n   },\r\n   \"url\": \"http://httpbin.org/post\",\r\n   \"args\": {},\r\n   \"headers\": {\r\n      \"Content-Length\": \"63\",\r\n      \"Connection\": \"keep-alive\",\r\n      \"User-Agent\": \"\",\r\n      \"Host\": \"httpbin.org\",\r\n      \"X-Requested-With\": \"XMLHttpRequest\",\r\n      \"Content-Type\": \"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\"\r\n   },\r\n   \"json\": null,\r\n   \"data\": \"\"\r\n}\r\n{code}\r\n\r\nYou will see the \"test_array\" has a value of \"[Ljava.lang.Object;@41a6e560\".\r\n\r\nHowever, sending the data as a url encoded string by changing the send statement to this:\r\n\r\n{code:js}\r\nxhr.send('test_text=testing&test_array=one&test_array=two&test_array=three');\r\n{code}\r\n\r\nCreates the correct post data:\r\n\r\n{code}\r\n{\r\n   \"origin\": \"64.128.22.8\",\r\n   \"files\": {},\r\n   \"form\": {\r\n      \"test_array\": [\r\n         \"one\",\r\n         \"two\",\r\n         \"three\"\r\n      ],\r\n      \"test_text\": \"testing\"\r\n   },\r\n   \"url\": \"http://httpbin.org/post\",\r\n   \"args\": {},\r\n   \"headers\": {\r\n      \"Content-Length\": \"64\",\r\n      \"Connection\": \"keep-alive\",\r\n      \"User-Agent\": \"\",\r\n      \"Host\": \"httpbin.org\",\r\n      \"X-Requested-With\": \"XMLHttpRequest\",\r\n      \"Content-Type\": \"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\"\r\n   },\r\n   \"json\": null,\r\n   \"data\": \"\"\r\n}\r\n{code}",
