Hey guys I'm writing a facebook bot program. Currently I am stuck at
the login screen. My approach was to take a password and convert it to
md5 along with the challenge parameter that you will notice if you go
to facebook's website. To give a better idea of this I'll show you
their login form:

<form method="post" name="loginform" action="https://
login.facebook.com/login.php" onsubmit="quicklogin();"><input
type="hidden" name="challenge"
value="77950fc560a9109fe0b61bb70753cec5">
<input type="hidden" name="md5pass">
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input type="hidden" name="noerror" value="1" />
<input class="inputtext" type="text" name="email"
value="em***@host.com" id="email" size="20" />
<label for="pass">Password:</label>
<input class="inputtext" type="password" name="pass" id="pass"
size="20" />
<input type="submit" value="Login" name="doquicklogin"
id="doquicklogin" onclick="this.disabled=true; this.form.submit();"
class="inputsubmit"/></form>

And what I did was write a program to send the following:
challenge=3b409cf0906ebb3007e8dd1cac3343ae&md5pass =7ca980aefc6964c5a125e0c637194ca3&noerror=1&email= mbinder09%40choate.edu&pass=&doquicklogin=Login
And I am sending this data to: "https://login.facebook.com/login.php"
just like the action of the form suggests. Unfortunately this approach
does not work properly. I even cleared the password field if you note
I sent '&password=' which is required by the facebook JavaScript
method:
function hash(form, login_url) {
document.cookie = "test_cookie=1;domain=.facebook.com";
if (valid_js()) {
var challenge = form.challenge.value;
var hash2 = MD5(form.pass.value) + challenge;
var hash;
if (form.pass.value) {
hash = MD5(hash2);
} else {
hash = "";
}
form.md5pass.value = hash;
form.pass.value = "";
}
return true;
}

note: valid_js() just checks to make sure that the agent is proper
which mine is. Im worried about the document.cookie thing..could that
be it?

Any help is welcome! I am very new to web applications so don't assume
that your points will be repetitive given my lack of knowledge. Thanks!

you people are always just so helpful on these groups!!! not! To be
honest, I'll bet 99% of all usenet posts consist of people quoting
'good posting form' and other such bs!!! get a life!!! these groups
are for the exchange of information, yal make me sick with your
arrogant 'FAQS.' Sorry but I'm sure it says somewhere in that 'FAQ'
that you shouldn't post off-topic stuff. Well, someone isn't
practicing what they teach. Get a life pal.
