Login to website with HTTP.UDF

[fielmann]

Hello Autoit-friends!

Login to website with HTTP.UDF

I can't get the website content with _HTTPRead() after sending POST:

#include <HTTP.au3>
$host = "www.inselmacht.de"
$page = "/index.php"
$socket = _HTTPConnect($host)

$get = _HTTPGet($host, $page, $socket)
$recv = _HTTPRead($socket,1)

msgbox(0,"",$recv[4])

$result = StringInStr($recv[4], "PHPSESSID=")
msgbox(0,"position",$result)
$sid = StringMid($recv[4], $result+10, 32)

MsgBox(0, "", $sid)

$page = "/login.php?sid=" & $sid & " login_nick=user123&login_pw=123456&login_game=1&Submit=Zum+Spiel+..."
$num = _HTTPPost($host, $page)
MsgBox(0,"POST " & @error,$num)

$recv = _HTTPRead()
msgbox(0,@error,$recv)

Please check the script and tell me where the problem is.

What did you use to capture the POST from the browser?

What did you use to capture the POST from the browser?

why should I capture the POST that I want to send to the server?

I thought that I POST to the server and get back the result with _HTTPread

the first part with _HTTPGet work without problems

Is there a difference in sending a POST-command?

Your method of logging-in to a gaming site - conspicuously using non-standard UDF's and determining a Session ID, might lead people to believe you are attempting to hack a website.

First, sign a confession that this is not what you are trying to do, then write an extensive treatise on morality generally, and lastly explain why you are trying to hack this website?

I don't want to hack the site!

I want to build a robot that can build game-items automatictily.

Before I could do this, I have to enter with my account!

There are many topics on the forums that cover logging-in to gaming sites and other sites. At the top of this webpage, toward the right, there is a "Search" link. Click on it and study some results, why not?

Why do you think I have started this case here?

I've already studied the forum before I started it.

Back to the roots: Do you have any technical information for the POST-problem ?

This stuff is well beyond squirrely capability - but if you are wondering about where is the thread where the author of the include file "HTTP.au3", it is at this link.

I know the link!

Or where do you expect to find informations about HTTP.AU3 - UDF ???

I don't need a link, I need an answer for my POST-question why it does not work in palpable case!

Well, I'm not using the same approach, but this is how I'm doing some screen scraping. It may be overkill (I'm too new to tell), but it works:

#include <IE.au3>; browser
#include <GUIConstants.au3>; GUI

Func WebGetPage($url)
  Local $text, $browser, $window, $GUIActiveX
  _IEErrorHandlerRegister()
  $browser = _IECreateEmbedded()
  GUISetState(@SW_HIDE);HIDE GUI
  $window = GUICreate($Config.item('Title_WebGetPage'))
  $GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($browser, 1, 1)
  _IENavigate($browser, $url)
  $text = _IEBodyReadHTML($browser)
  $text = StringStripWS($text, 3)
  GUIDelete($window)
  return $text
EndFunc

edit: added 'includes'
