Hi Ernst,
After a couple of starts and stops. Yes, using 4.0.1 and
also tried 4.1alpha1 , after doing the post, w/ a username
and password, I do not see the next page, the response shows
just the initial page which has the login/passwords field, but
not the next page which is what I'm expecting to see.
any thoughts ? seems that I'm not posting the login/password.
Jim
HttpPost post = new
HttpPost("http://www.gomeznetworks.com/login.asp";);
List<NameValuePair> vals = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
vals.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "****"));
vals.add(new BasicNameValuePair("pwd", "****"));
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(vals, HTTP.UTF_8));
HttpResponse response2 = client.execute(post);
HttpEntity entity2 = response2.getEntity() ;
System.out.println("Login form get: " +
response2.getStatusLine());
System.out.println("Response content length: "
+ entity2.getContentLength());
if (entity2 != null) {
System.out.println(EntityUtils.toString(entity2));
entity2.consumeContent();
}

Hi Jim
I assume you use HttpClient v4?
If you look at the form action attribute in the page you will see this:
<form action="login.asp" method="post" id="form1" name="form1">
So you need to post the parameters to this url:
http://www.gomeznetworks.com/login.asp
and set the fields like this:
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(url);
List<NameValuePair> vals = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
vals.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "you"));
vals.add(new BasicNameValuePair("pwd", "passwd"));
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(vals, HTTP.UTF_8));
and now execute it.
as far as the input type image is concerned, I think the onclick event
of image is captured bij Javascript event attachment and in that
handler the form is posted, but I did not bother to verify that.
Met Vriendelijke groet/Kind regards,
Ernst Nolte
