Ok this could well be the case, but could there also be something wrong
with my code? Because I have tried all the permutations and it still not
behaving correctly.

Hello Philip,
(and only then) should the file upload start. My problem is that at the
moment whether the username/password is right or wrong the file upload
happens and if the credentials are wrong it get discarded. Now this
isn't a problem with small files but this application will be dealing
with files 100s of MB large so it will cause unneeded delay and file
uploading if I can't change.
you've already enabled the expect-continue handshake. If the server
still doesn't verify the credentials before sending the "continue",
you'll have to split your actions into two requests: the first to
make sure that the credentials are ok, the second for the upload.
You could/should also complain to whomever it is that implemented
the server that it doesn't work as it should. Note however that the
HTTP specification does not *require* servers to check credentials
before sending the "continue". It only suggests that they should.
hope that helps,
Roland
