Accessing a website using cookies

[hdsouza]

I want to login to a site using cookies, but the script will not allow me to login.
Any ideas what I doing wrong?

Code (winbatch) Select Expand


AddExtender("WWINT44I.DLL")

acc="Accept: test"
lan ="Accept-Language: en"
;encoding="Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate"
user="User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT)"
host="Host: www.lendingclub.com"
;length="Content-Length: 112"
conn="Connection: Keep-Alive"
cookie ="Cookie: test"
HtmlFile="http://www.lendingclub.com"
url = "www.lendingclub.com"
lc_Login = "admin"
lc_pass = "pass"

;myheader=strcat(acc, @crlf, lan, @crlf, encoding, @crlf, user, @crlf, cookie, @crlf, host, @crlf, conn, @crlf, cookie)
myheader=strcat(acc, @crlf, lan, @crlf, user, @crlf, cookie, @crlf, host, @crlf, conn, @crlf, cookie)
;message("test", myheader)

TopHandle =ibegin(0,"","")
conhandle=iHostConnect(TopHandle, Url ,@HTTP, lc_Login, lc_pass)
datahandle=iHttpInit(conhandle, "GET", "/account/summary.action", "",0)
rslt=iHttpOpen(datahandle, Myheader, 0 , 0)
xx =ireaddata(datahandle,"c:\temp\temp.txt") ; writes whole html file

You should consider looking at the WinInet section of the Tech Database.  You can find it by searching for something like "iHostConnect".    Generally but not always, when logging on to a public website you need to post form data to log in.
