   \setupfields[method=XML]

or

   \setupfields[methods=FDF]

will give you the other methods

I have created a c program using Adobe's FDF toolkit (with a python
wrapper) and would like to use a pdf form created with context to
submit FDF data to a specified URL.  My context file includes the
following:

\button{Submit}[SubmitForm{http://localhost/cgi-bin/fdf/record.py\#FDF}]

This apparently sends URL-encoded data (using get?) instead of FDF
data.  A similar pdf form created using latex and pdftex with

\begin{Form}[action=http://localhost/cgi-bin/fdf/record.py\#FDF,
method=post]

works perfectly.  What am I missing in the setup for context?

Thanks for any help!
Dan
