Recommended Posts

Im wondering if anyone can help me with a http post problem. Iam able to log into a site easily enough but i need to be able to get to another page on the site after that, but im unsure how. currently im using the code below to login but i need to get to the http://POSTWebsite.com/forum.php page after login so that i can post a new thread. anyone got any ideas how to do this?

$oHTTP = ObjCreate("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1")
$oHTTP.Open("POST", "http://POSTWebsite.com/login.php" , False)
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042316 Firefox/3.0.10 (.NET CLR 4.0.20506)")
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Referrer", "http://www.google.com")
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Connection", "keep-alive")
$oHTTP.Send("username=xxxxxxx" & "&password=xxxxxxx")
$oReceived = $oHTTP.ResponseText

Thanks for any help :graduated:

ive had a look at WinHttp.au3 but didnt understand it. When you said i should just go to that page, ive tried adding

$oHTTP.Open("POST", "http://POSTWebsite.com/forum.php" , False)

at the end of the script but $oReceived = $oHTTP.ResponseText shows that that page doesnt load. Ive read through every forum post in every forum thread but wasnt able to scrape the info from it. Any help with this? Thanks :graduated:

That's too bad.

You should have looked harder. You even have a help file available with plenty of examples.

$oHTTP.Open("POST", "http://POSTWebsite.com/forum.php" , False)

Do you normally access that page with POST verb?

I relooked at WinHttp.au3. there are good examples, but the problem is that i cant find anywhere that says what the parameters are. E.G

$sRead = _WinHttpSimpleFormFill($hConnect, "html/html_forms.asp", "name:input0", "name:user", "OMG!!!")

i see that but dont know what the parameters are. i have no idea what is supposed to go between each comma, so cant figure out how to modify the examples to do what i want. thats why i asked for help here.

Regarding WinHttp.au3...

That's why the help file was written.

_WinHttpSimpleFormFill. That page is not descriptive enough for you? Every parameter for the function is described, function defined, additional explanation on the function behavior, link to dependencies and four examples of usage. If that's not enough for you then maybe you aren't trying hard enough.

Would you like me to write the code you need for you?

as good as the examples are, i still cant work out how to redirect to another page after logging in. It must be that im not trying hard enough then :graduated: Either that, or there is something wrong with the site im trying to POST to :(

now i defo need help. i checked with the site im using POST with and can confirm its my code thats the problem. i can login, but cant redirect to a page on that site and post data there, im using the code below. If you could point out where i going wrong, i would appreciate it as ive been stuck here for ages.

#include "WinHttp.au3"

Opt("MustDeclareVars", 1)
; Initialize and get session handle
Global $hOpen = _WinHttpOpen()

Global $hConnect, $sRead, $hConnect2, $sRead2
Global $hFileHTM, $sFileHTM = @ScriptDir & "\Form.htm"

; Get connection handle
$hConnect = _WinHttpConnect($hOpen, "website.com")

$sRead = _WinHttpSimpleFormFill($hConnect, "takelogin.php", "takelogin.php", "name:username", "xxxxxxx", "name:password", "xxxxxxx")

$hConnect2 = _WinHttpConnect($hOpen, "website.com")

$sRead2 = _WinHttpSimpleFormFill($hConnect2, "index.php", "shoutbox_form", "name:shoutbox_message", "test", "name:shout_submit", "Shout")
_WinHttpCloseHandle($hConnect)
_WinHttpCloseHandle($hConnect2)

If $sRead2 Then
    MsgBox(64 + 262144, "Done!", "Will open returned page in your default browser now." & @CRLF & _
            "It should show sent data.")
    $hFileHTM = FileOpen($sFileHTM, 2)
    FileWrite($hFileHTM, $sRead2)
    FileClose($hFileHTM)
    ShellExecuteWait($sFileHTM)
EndIf

_WinHttpCloseHandle($hOpen)

no1 knows the problem? ive tried so many variations to the examples to try to get a redirect. when i do successfully get a redirect, its to the wrong page lol. I just need to know if its the format thats wrong so i can cancel the issue down to incorrectly using the parameters. Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on the problem.

Try this code.

I'm sure it will help.

If StringInStr($oReceived, "Login message you get when you log in here..") Then 
; ...<actions>

Edit: Oh when you redirect to a page be sure to add it to your $oHTTP.Send()

Ex: $oHTTP.Send("username=xxxxxxx" & "&password=xxxxxxx" & "text that redirects you to a certain page here...")

That first form that you fill is way off. Did you copy/paste those "name:username" and "name:password" strings???

If yes then there is no sense in helping you. You wouldn't understand.

This has nothing to do with coding. You have to know what to code before actually attempting to code.

The name:username etc are the field names. i used debugbar to get every fieldname. The first page is way off? That first page was a login page and the response showed that i logged in ok. I filled it in according to _WinHttpSimpleFormFill. Oh, and i already wrote a fully working script to do what i want using IE, but wanted to use POST instead as it is alot more convenient than having to open IE. Im pretty sure i what what im coding, just struggling with how to do it. I'll now look into HTTP headers. See if that is where my issue is. Thanks :graduated:

Thanks for the info on headers. That seemed to be the problem. I decided to use $oHTTP = ObjCreate("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1") instead of WinHttp.au3. I have now successfully redirected to another page. i have a question though. It seems some of the fields on that page have different content types to others. If im sending data to 1 page, do i use the pages Content-Type: multipart/form-data and then set a content type for each field that requires it or just use the pages content-type? E.G.

The pages content type is:

Content-Type: multipart/form-data

there are some fields on that page that i need to send data to like:

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="C:\Testfolder\test.txt"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream

2 fields have this content type but the others dont. Is this important or can i use the pages Content-Type?

$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data")
$oHTTP.Send()

This successfully redirected to another page and posted to that page. I was unable to go further and figure out how to upload a file so went with curl instead. Hope it helps you.

I am using peices of this to log into my forums and retrive a vaule on the page. I got it working with what you posted first but its like it doesnt really log the user in becuase i can use the same user and pass in IE and it wont bump the script off :graduated:

muppet hands are so soft :)
