IE ActiveX Control ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

[inetvideo]

Hi,

I am trying to use the ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2") to create an instance of IE integrated within my GUI. I want to access a page which requires IIS authentication. And so in the Navigate2 method I include header information as such:

$test64var = _Base64Encode("username:password")

$Tab_Mods_Internal_Shipping_IE.Navigate("http://admin.inetvideo.com/admin", "", "", "", "Authorization: Basic " & $test64var & @CRLF)

Where _Base64Encode is a defined function to convert the user/pass to base64 encoding, which seems to be a requirement. I still get a "Navigation to the webpage was canceled" error.

I tried including the login info in the URL like "http://username:password@admin.inetvideo.com/admin". That still doesn't work. Can someone please help me out in figuring out the problem?

Thanks,

Im probably off on this but usually when logging into a site you using a get or even a post method the url would be similar to this. http://www.site.com?username=blah&password=pw123

Im not sure if this will work in your case.
