Hi everyone, I'm creating a desktop Python application that requires web-based authentication for accessing additional application features.
HTTP GET is really simple. HTTP POST is not (at least for me anyway) ;) I have tried a few different sources, but I cannot get HTTP POST to successfully log in. I can login using FireFox at http://www.magnetshare.com/main.php I suggest you register a dummy login to see what I mean (don't enter your real e-mail address). Now here's some code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ msparams = urllib.urlencode({'user': self.components.User.text, 'pass': self.components.MagnetSharePassword.text, 'sublogin': '1'}) try: f = urllib() ***What should go here?*** fc = f.read() fc.close() except: self.statusBar.text = "Disconnected" result = dialog.alertDialog(self, 'Couldn\'t connect to MagnetShare.com! Please check your Internet connection, and then try again.') else: print fc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also, could you let us know what modules we should import? Thanks for checking this out! By the way, the PHP system I'm using is super easy to set up: http://www.evolt.org/article/PHP_Login_System_with_Admin_Features/17/60384/index.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
