Quick suggestion: more later when I have time

Look at the LiveHeaders in Firefox and see what the
Authorization header says when you do the direct login

Then add the custom header in Rev before sending.
Basic Authorization is just the name and password in base64.

This was part of a question I had on this list about 6 weeks ago, so do a search for 'authoriaztion' and look at the code I found that worked.
Now on to my deadline.

Hi All,

I need the ability to download a secure web page (I have the login
details) and get data from it. This is so I can allow everyone to
monitor internet usage, so we don't go over in a month and get
speed-capped to dial-up to speeds.

On my browser, I go to
<https://memberservices.optuszoo.com.au/login/?target=/myusage/>
and when I enter the name & password, I get to
<https://memberservices.optuszoo.com.au/myusage/> which has the data I
need.

I have tried using Rev directly:
   put URL "https://memberservices.optuszoo.com.au/myusage/";
and
put URL "https://username:[email protected]/myusage/ "
but these give no data at all.

Then I tried curl, but I have to say I find it very confusing with
it's multitude of options. I tried several options that gave nothing
and some that gave me back a web page, but always just the login page
again.

revBrowser allows me to get the login page, enter my details and
login, then get the html source so I can find the usage data I need,
but this is only a useful technique if I have a way to submit a form
automatically from a revBrowser.

So does anyone have a way of getting data from a page like this?
