I'm trying to programatically submit edits to my

Either:
* I'm not making the upload requests correctly
* There is a server side security model that forbids this
* I'm going mad :)
You can see the form-data I'm sending by going here:
http://81.5.150.113/wysi/Very_small_test?debug=yes&action=edit
then change the wikitext and click save, the request and response body will
be shown on the right (which I use as a debugging area)
Any help would be really appreciated, this is a real show-stopper for my
project.
Are you loading the edit page first and taking the wpEditToken? You
need it. (It's used for various things, including detection of edit
conflicts.)
