Sencha : how to pass parameter to php using Ext.data.HttpProxy?

Question

I have successfully completed this great tutorial : http://www.sencha.com/learn/ext-js-grids-with-php-and-sql/

I just can't use the baseParams field specified with the proxy... Here is my code that follows tutorial description :

__ My Store : Communes.js ____

Ext.define('app.store.Communes', {
    extend: 'Ext.data.Store',
    id: 'communesstore',
    requires: ['app.model.Commune'],

config: {
    model: 'app.model.Commune',
    departement:'var',

    // the proxy with POST method
    proxy: new Ext.data.HttpProxy({
        url: 'app/php/communes.php',      // File to connect to
        method: 'POST'
    }),

    // the parameter passed to the proxy
    baseParams:{
        departement: "VAR"
    },

    // the JSON parser
    reader: new Ext.data.JsonReader({   
        // we tell the datastore where to get his data from
        rootProperty: 'results'
    },
    [
        {
            name: 'IdCommune',     
            type: 'integer'
        },

        {
            name: 'NomCommune',    
            type: 'string'
        }
    ]),
    autoLoad: true,
    sortInfo:{
        field: 'IdCommune', direction: "ASC"
    }
}

});

_____ The php file : communes.php _____

<?php

/**
 *  CREATE THE CONNECTION
 */
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "pwd") or
        die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("databasename");

/**
 * INITIATE THE POST 
 */
$departement = 'null';
  if ( isset($_POST['departement'])){
    $departement = $_POST['departement'];   // Get this from Ext
  }

  getListCommunes($departement);

/**
 * 
 */
function getListCommunes($departement) {

[CODE HERE WORK FINE : just a connection and query but $departement is NULL]

}

?>

There is no parameter passed as POST method... Any idea?

show us the request please.

That´s because the baseParams are part of the querystring, they are not passed in the POST body but in the url instead.

I don´t know PHP but probably this works:

if ( isset($_GET['departement'])){
    $departement = $_GET['departement'];   // Get this from Ext
}

That would be suprising, no? I specified the method to be 'POST' to my proxy. Anyway I've tried your solution with no result... :/

No, that wouldn´t be surprising at all because it is a param and like any param it is passed in the url. And things passed in the url are not in the request body. The verb doesn´t matter here, what really matter is where the info is.
