I use Firefox's Firebug and Live HTTP Headers plug-ins to see what's

No it doesn't. As I said before, the login and password are embedded on
every page and there is no separate page to login from.

Thanks Jeff,
I wrote an ftp_get/put as well, but it uses standard AIX programs and
works very well. I've used sftp in the past and if that comes up, I'm
prepared. It's just that I'm new to the HTTP retrieval world. Just getting
it to work at all was exciting for me...
Do you know if curl works
Never mind about the AIX question. I installed the Linux Applications CD
for AUX and curl is on it. Now for some good, old fashioned elbow grease.
This is the exciting part of my job.

Okay, I've re-written the application that retrieves product data so it
now uses curl, but I'm stumped on the password section.
The way the vendor site is written, it doesn't require a password to get
search results. If our salesmen are logged in, they get:
Retail Price: 2.02
Your Price: 1.21
Not a trivial subject. You should probably contact the site owner and
inquire as to what URL encoded string their login program wants to see
as a beginning point.

The application checks to see if the user has access to the web page. If
the user does not it should go to a login page to prompt for username and
password.
To by pass this, you may be able to call the login page, feed username and
password and then call the page you require.

I've used cURL for many years and recommend it highly. It's now in its
tenth year as open source with a business-friendly license and exceptional
maintenance record. While on-going maintenance
Thanks Tony.
I've subscribed to lists and have used OSS (open source software) since
about 1991. There is one thing about this situation and using cURL. I'm on
AIX and the Linux Applications are specifically remastered for use on AIX.
Frankly, I don't think the vigilance is as necessary as I'm
Karl,
Yes, and it does not actually cost you anything (open source), but it is
another 3rd party product.
I had a similar problem some years ago. For password handling, which can end
up being a cookie issue, I used curl - http://curl.haxx.se/.
