I am having some problems with python. If I use IE to POST data to a page using a simple form, I get the following

conn.request("POST", "automa/auth.php", params, headers)
response = conn.getresponse()
print response.status, response.reason
data = response.read()
conn.close()I get a 400 Bad Request fault, see dump.
