_INetGetSource function not working properly


Recommended Posts

I am unable to get the _INetGetSource function to work at work. (No pun intended.) The function works just fine at home. I have tried disabling the AntiVirus and Windows Firewall. Therefore, I was wondering would my work's hardware firewall be blocking this in some way?

I need for this function (or an alternative function that will perform the same) to work in all circumstances as my program will soon be in the hands of about 9000 users.

The problem is that the source is never returned. In fact, nothing is ever returned. Not even an error (though I'm not sure how to check if this function errors out or not). How can I go about troubleshooting this? The problem exists even when using the example code found in the help file. Like I said, it works at home. Thanks in advance!

P.S.

If you need to see the code, I can provide the relevant part but, as previously stated, the code from the help file doesn't even work. Also, an interesting note is that internal addresses work (hence my suspicion of the hardware firewall).

Hi there,

Do you have a proxy server at work?

Cheers.

No we do not. That made me think of something that I totally forgot though; at home I run a proxy server and a firewall, (to be exact, SmoothWall with the advanced proxy plugin), that blocks everything ingoing and outgoing except a few ports and port 80. So now I'm at a loss as to what it could be that is different at work.

Any ideas?

I guess I could always have a disclaimer that the update feature might not work behind firewalls or proxies. I'm not sure if my boss would just accept and leave it at that or not...

Did you try using another website for testing?

Yes. Google, Yahoo, Autoit and mine. None work. I thought maybe it could be the OS I was on so I switched from a Windows 7 machine to a Windows XP machine. Same results. Nothing returned. The only thing I want to do is ping a php script on the server and return the version number that script outputs. Is there another way to do this outside of _INetGetSource?

Nevermind. I have found an alternative to accessing the source of a webpage and saving it to a variable that will work at my work (and hopefully everywhere else). Not familiar at all with COM, but it works. In case anyone is curious, this is what I ended up doing (taken from the COM Reference I stumbled upon in the help files):

$oHTTP = ObjCreate("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1")
$oHTTP.Open("GET","http://google.com")
$oHTTP.Send()
$HTTPSource = $oHTTP.Responsetext
ConsoleWrite($HTTPSource)

Thank you to you both for responding.
