I've a very similar situation to whitebreadb. I'm not disagreeing with the answers submitted and accepted but would like to post my own as the code provided here didn't work for me (my PHP script reported the submitted parameter as a zero-length string) but I did find this question that helped.

I used this to perform a posting to my PHP script:

NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.myphpscriptlocation.net/index.php?userID=%@",self.userID_field.stringValue]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:URL];
request.HTTPMethod = @"POST";
NSURLConnection *c = [NSURLConnection connectionWithRequest:request delegate:self];
