Did you actually get this to work?

I am attempting something similar.

First I tried a simple url using https protocal. That returns the page with
the login in form.
I filled in the parameters and sent it back. The login site did not
recognize the login request.

Second I followed the code below, with the exact same result. I can get the
main login page, but
after filling in the form and posting the correct response, the site did not
respond as logged in.

I suspect that the encryption is not working but I do not know how the
diagnose that.

Thanks for any help.

I am trying to write a basic https client. It will contact an https
site, post authentication details, follow some links, and retrieve some

struggling to find example code.


An example is attached below.

Awesome, thanks guys, that's what I needed
