Hello, I am making a screen scraper, in other programs I have been able to log into a site, get the cookie, submit a form and read the results.
However, this time I am in troubles, the site I need to log is using a local stored cookie or some info in it, since I can access OK from the IE, but when I log from the program I get some errors.
I am using Fiddler to check the cookie values and the cookie I get from the site in the screen scraper program is different from the values that use the local stored cookie.
I have made tests and if I delete the local stored cookie, I am not able to access, even from the IE. The site uses some kind of IP reservation and grants permissions to it on the first login, I think it stores some data in the cookie.
So what I need to know is how to LOAD o CREATE a cookie from a IE file.
Regards

What are the errors?
I get an "Invalid user or password", I think it has to be with the local stored cookie, because when you delete it from IE temp. folder you can not login even from IE.
I am sending the same request as detected from fiddler, my request and IE requests are the same except for the cookie.

Is it a session cookie?
Is it a string of digits? It's possible that it's encoded with say a time value or some other random seed type thing. (It's probably at very lest base64 encoded)

I have accesed the cookie file and it has this string:
"
IdCtrl
87383737A
subdomain.domai n.com/
1024
3229943808
30223977
234922848
29863862
*
"
When I check in fiddler the cookie after I login in IE, I can see the variable:value that it loads, it loads always the same data.
If I delete the cookie, I have to ask the people from this site to reset my password, then I can log again and keep doing this.
Is this info helpful?

A question on html-forms:
We have an application where users will get a CD with,
among other things, some html-forms for them to fill in.
When they click the submit-button, the data is transferred
to a webserver php-script that will then process the info.
The forms-definition looks something like this:

Clear DayHello,
I have implemented a download manger in .NET that overrides Internet
Explorer's bult-in download manager.
I using HttpWebRequest/Response to download the files.
All is working well except when I try to download an attachment file from a
web-based mailbox.
I've tried using credentials and saving the cookies, nothing helps.

Could someone explain to me the relationship between these two classes? I

Hey Group,
I'm in the process of converting an ASP-based site to an ASP.NET site and
built a control that wraps around an ASP page. The control simply does a GET
to the same server to render the ASP content, and then just writes it to the
page.
In development and testing, there were no problems. Once deployed to
production, after the site runs for a few hours, it starts to slow down and
throw countless "Operation Has Timed Out"...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
