Thank you for the super help. It is first time I using this interface.
I did use your code and modified a bit and I believe got the cookie working.
Why i say that because after accessing the second fetch and in the view
source code of the page somewhere inside uses the PHPSESSID i have retrieved
from the login URL page. That indicates me i succeed in tracking the session
id used.
The cookie and the value I send back to the server looks like this but may
de different for other servers.
Cookie: PHPSESSID=sfs3892jhfsdkfsldfjsldkfjdfsdfjdfkdfdf
Code now:
// BEGIN --------
URLFetchService urlFetchService=
URLFetchServiceFactory.getURLFetchService();
URL url = new URL("https://www.somename.com/login.php";);
HTTPRequest httpRequest = new HTTPRequest(url,HTTPMethod.POST,
validateCertificate());
HTTPResponse response = urlFetchService.fetch(httpRequest);
// Get site cookie
// ...
String cookies=null;
for (HTTPHeader header : response.getHeaders())
{
if (header.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("set-cookie")) {
cookies = header.getValue().substring(0,42); // gets only
PHPSESSID=value32characters for my server URL
// prepare second HTTP request with cookie set
httpRequest.setHeader(new HTTPHeader("Cookie", cookies));
}
}
// ...
// prepare second HTTP request with cookie set
httpRequest.setPayload("lang=en&login=dm2vdfT&password=vjfgd&action=login".getBytes());
response = urlFetchService.fetch(httpRequest);
// END ------------------------------------------
The problem I am facing now is that it populates the login and lang fields
but the password value is left blank but i do have it in the setPayload
function. So i don't understand why it does not read it ? Should the
password value be sent differently from the other fields ?
Thanks again for you help!
