My steps to diagnose my problems are: 1: Try to work with the web app in internet explorer 5.5 2: trace interactions with site using cURL acting as IE5.5 3: trace interactions with site using cURL acting as the suspect agent my favorite usage is: curl -viLsA 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)' url -F for form values -b & -c for cookies -k for ssl issues -u for user auth -o for output file ( i like the screen better ) On Thu, 16 Jan 2003, Brandon Cruz wrote: Does anyone have familiarity with using JAVA to simulate a browser session and navigate multiple pages in a https based web application, storing session cookies, doing form posts, etc.? We are trying to do an https post, but the application is acting as if the parameters are never passed. We have done the exact same thing before at another website with no problems. The only difference is that the one that does not work is using session cookies, although we are able to successfully get and set the cookies. In both situations, the web application we are trying to navigate is ASP based. We are trying to integrate one of our partners applications to ours and could really use any information, web pages to reference, anything. We're out of ideas. Thanks in advance and sorry for the off topic post, please reply to me directly.
