Send form to remote server

I want to use the service provided at http://zxing.org/w/decode.jspx with a custom form in my own site. I've written the following code:

<html>
<body>
    <FORM action="http://zxing.org/w/decode.jspx" method="post">
        <INPUT type="text" name="u" value="http://justinsomnia.org/images/qr-code-justinsomnia.png">
        <INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> 
    </FORM>
</body>
</html>

When I submit the form, I'd expect to see the results page with a "Decode Succeeded" message. Instead, I see the original remote form I'm trying to duplicate.

Can you spot what's wrong with my custom form?

   <html>
   <body>
   <FORM action="http://zxing.org/w/decode" method="get">
   <INPUT type="text" name="u" value="http://justinsomnia.org/images/qr-code-justinsomnia.png">
   <INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> 
    </FORM>
    </body>
    </html>

You should use get instead of the post method. You are posting to the wrong URL, post to http://zxing.org/w/decode. I checked it, it's working now.
