G'day All,
I'm trying to code a "Data Downloader" to automatically login and
download data from www.Investorweb.com.au using the Internet Transfer
Control.
I have a some VB experience but no experience with web programming apart
from basic html, forms etc.
1). I've extracted the following from the login page
<SNIP>
https://www.investorweb.com.au/mb_login_page.asp
<FORM name="frmLogin"
action="mb_login_page.asp?_sn=D8C6E62C-71C1-422C-AC43-0B73B9B4903F&_c=&_dt=28%2F08%2F2004+4%3A28%3A58+PM &popUpType=Login"
method="POST">
<INPUT type=hidden name="GoBack" value="">
<INPUT type="text" name="memberID" size="20" class="clsFieldData"
value="userA">
<input type="password" name="pswd" size="20" class="clsFieldData"
value="mypassword">
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="remember_me" VALUE="Y" checked>
<INPUT class="clsBtnGo" type=submit name="subLogin" value="Login">
<INPUT class="clsBtnGo" type=submit name="subCancel" value="Cancel"> </SNIP>
I've found a few examples of using the Internet Transfer Control but
none similar to my needs. I've experimented with using the "post" method
but can't get any clues.
Q1). Is the Internet Transfer Control suitable for this task?
Q2). If not what is the best approach to my problem?
Q3). If it is, could you please give me some pointers?
Thanking you in advance,
build
