Hi Roland,
Thanks for the response.
I've made some progress, but do have a couple of questions.
May be you can help? (or anyone else)
....
I've successfully used the "GetMethod" class to connect to the URL.
The "authget.getResponseBody()" contains the page with the login form.
The response code is 200 OK.
I now want to use a "PostMethod" to send the login details back.
The "PostMethod" contructor takes a URL, what is this URL for? Is it the
same that used for the "GetMethod"?
The examples show...
"authpost.setRequestBody(new NameValuePair[] {action, url, userid,
password});"
What is the 'action' & 'url' that is passed in used for?
Do I just specify the same URL as before?
Do I need to pass in an 'action'? and how do I know what it will be?
....
Ok, that that was more like 6 questions, than a couple. :-)
Jeff

Hello Jeff,
is this decent enough?
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/index.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/sslguide.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/authentication.html
You probably don't need to know the authentication mechanism.
But you do need to know whether there is one.
cheers,
Roland

HTTPS connection example
Hello all,
I'm new to HTTP-client, so please be gentle :-)
I'm trying to make a connection to a website
(https://web.xxxx.com/AS/Journal/).
How do I tell the authentication mechanism it uses? Do I need to know?
Is there a simple example/tutorial on HTTPS connections? (other than the
FormLoginDemo.java)
Is there a decent website to start learning from?
Thanks
Jeff
