Define "Does not work properly"? Exception? Error message? Code runs fine but 
server doesn't get the data? What's going on?

 From reading the IDL, your problem may be solved by passing the OPEN_BLOCKING 
flag 
(http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.2/source/netwerk/base/public/nsITransport.idl#104), 
although I too don't know this code, and am just guessing. Try asking in 
m.d.platform instead (setting followupto). Alternatively, search for 
openOutputStream in MXR to find a working example.
