-----Original Message----- From: Plorks mail [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 2:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: basic authentication Dear all, I'm trying to access an external web service that requires me to pass a valid username and password. I have some documentation but i'm clear how i do this It says "customers will be authenticated through use of HTTP headers. Authenticaton is performed using standard HTTP basic authentication. Every message must have the HTTP authentication header correctly set with customer's id and password..." I'm not sure how i do this if i call an external function e.g. doSomething, how do i pass the credentials through? Any help much appreciated _________________________________________________________________ Winks & nudges are here - download MSN Messenger 7.0 today! http://messenger.msn.co.uk
