Hi Pascal,

I'm not sure if this is your situation but I experienced something 
similar about 2 months ago when I started experimenting with XForms.

The instance data was external and I was not setting the bind attribute 
for the submission element (which at that time I considered optional). 
That behaved exactly as you described it: GET was OK, POST was not 
hitting the server. The moment I added the bind attribute pointing to 
the root element of the instance things got solved.

For details check my last note to the thread "XForms help needed - 
Multiple form per document submission problem" started on 9/13/2005@1:19 PM.

Hope this helps,
