I did find a work-around, but it is not pretty:
while httpcli.State <> httpready do
begin
a:=a+1;
log.Lines.add('Waiting '+inttostr(a));
application.ProcessMessages;
end;
This is only needed after a 302. The counter ranges from 400-1000 before
the state turns to httpready. And I am not sure that they are real 302s.
The same pages give a statuscode of 302 consistently when downloaded in the
same order, but may give a 200 if downloaded in a different order. Could a
bug in my program make httpcli give a fake 302 statuscode?
(The above code gives an infinite loop if application.processmessages is
removed)
