HTTPService sending params

Question

I'm trying to submit some data over the HTTPService object to
a struts2 action class. The method I'm trying to use is as follows:
<mx:HTTPService id="myRequest" url="save.action">
<mx:request xmlns="">
<user.id>{userId.text}</user.id>
<user.username>{username.text}</user.username>
<user.password>{password.text}</user.password>
<user.email>{email.text}</user.email>
</mx:request>
</mx:HTTPService>
Of course it doesn't like the "user.username" convention
which struts2 uses to submit an object. I'm trying to built a
little test flex app as a proof of concept for our existing webapp.
The html for a given input box would look like this <input
type="text" name="user.username" />.
Is there anyway to do this other than changing the
myRequest.url by adding the parameters manually?

I think it needs to be something like this:
<user>
<id></id>
<username></username>
</user>
That solution doesn't work.

Try using script to set it when you actually send the
request:
myRequest.send({
"user.id":userId.text,
"user.username":username.text,
"user.password":password.text,
"user.email":email.text

That works great thanks. I also found that you can use the {}
in the request method/property.
