Is it ok if I sorta hijack this thread a tiny bit? I'm wanting to access data on a website that requires that I log in... (this is just one of many...) http://www.stockxpert.com/index.phtml
i cannot figure out how to get their site to let me log in. It has the standard username and password fields but if there's some secret string to pass in user data i don't have a clue. I was trying to do it with a CFC (without even trying it in FLEX) but if someone's already tackled this beast i'd love to know. I've tried http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc and that doesn't seem to work. i think i know how to parse the data once i get to the page i want to get to, but i can't figure out how to log in... anyone have some idea? I've tried google and google groups but i'm just not finding the answers i would like to have. I don't think there are any webservices that the sites provide so i'm thinking my only option is to scrape off the data from the http pages. Thanks!
