Did you use xscope to make sure that the request was actually getting
sent to the server, and that all the fields are correct?  That's the
next thing I'd look at.  (You might also run the receiving client under
another xscope to find out whether the event is getting sent to it
correctly, just to make sure you know who's really at fault.)
