Hi Magnus In addition to getting HttpHost out of the execution context, you may also (1) cast HttpRequest to HttpUriRequest in order to get the full request URI (2) extend or replace the default RedirectHandler with a custom one and implement whatever redirect handling logic you deem appropriate Hope this helps Oleg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
