firstly, thanx for the reply
i set the user agent as this;
webRequest.UserAgent = @"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0;
..NET CLR 1.1.4322)";
as far as i know its wat IE can use (i ran TcpTrace to find out)
i have a global var (cookies) which is a CookieCollection object and im
doing this before i get a response )ie right after sendin a request
webRequest.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
if (this.cookies != null && this.cookies.Count > 0)
webRequest.CookieContainer.Add(this.cookies);
and this after i get a response, im new to web dev in c#, so i put most of
this together with examples i found
webResponse.Cookies =
webRequest.CookieContainer.GetCookies(webRequest.R equestUri);
if (webResponse.Cookies.Count > 0)
if (this.cookies == null)
{
this.cookies = webResponse.Cookies;
}
else
{
foreach (Cookie respCookie in webResponse.Cookies)
{
bool bMatch = false;
foreach(Cookie reqCookie in this.cookies)
{
if (reqCookie.Name == respCookie.Name)
{
reqCookie.Value = respCookie.Name;
bMatch = true;
break;
}
}
if (!bMatch)
this.cookies.Add(respCookie);
}
}
im not sure if it requires credientials (like a usrname and pass), im am
accessing a Online Manager for my fax machine (it has its own IP address) but
has never asked my for any info when i access it via IE.

"Enable cookies in your browser" would indicate that the web server is
determining (accurately or not) that your client does not have cookies
enabled. The "client" in this case is the HttpWebResponse object. I
have not encountered this particular problem but here are some thoughts
that occur to me offhand:
1) Is the target page part of a secure area such that it's looking for
some kind of credential cookie? It's possible that the reason it has
worked intermittently in the past is that you interactively accessed the
page, established your credentials, and that cookie was in the cache
when your program went back a little later to access the page.
2) Can you figure out what test the target page is using to test for
cookies being enabled? Armed with that knowledge, can you give it the
response it's looking for? Possibly something involving the Cookies
property of HttpWebResponse?

first page it displays the HTML code, but always with text "Enable Cookies In
Your Browser", is there a way to have it not display that and display the
actual page, i did get it at some stage, ut that involved a bit of recursion,
by callin the method again (from within itself) and that allowed the page to
be displayed.
But when i have tried to call a POST request, it displays the Enable Cookies
In Your Browser page again, and this time, on amount of recursion can save it.
Any ideas, if u need this to be more clearly displayed, ill send some code
over
