posting problem..
hi everyone..
i am trying to submit a form to a site using HttpClient..
the site has a login page (http://<xyz.site.com>/<loginpage>/) this is a
http site.
Now after logging in, comes that page with the form (which is to submitted)
which is a "https" page..ie. something like (
https://<abcdef.other.com>/<updateInfopage>/ )
I am able to login in and get/traverse all the pages etc.
but the problem i am getting is in posting the form on updateInfoPage.. on
posting it gives with HTTP 200 OK..
and no redirect location.. (whereas when i do the same with the browser it
redirects me back to the same page).
Even if 200 OK is not a problem .. still the request is not actually
getting posted.. because the form field values that should be actually be
updated are not getting updated from my program :(
whereas they get updated from the browser..
If anyone can help me out, i can send the code excerpts etc...
Thanx
Suchitra

Thanx Roland.
ya u r correct .. but response code was not the problem.. and there was no
hidden redirect field too..
but what i had missed while posting the form was the save or the update
button itself in the parameter(namevalue pair) list.
Silly on my part..
now the fields are getting updating :-) !
Still thanx again..

Hello Suchitra,
some sites implement redirects on the application level
instead of the protocol level. HttpClient handles only
HTTP redirects, that is status codes 30x. You should
have a look at the page you get with the 200 response.
Maybe the redirect is hidden there. Your application will
have to deal with it, though.
hope that helps,
Roland
