Hi all,
I want to access a html page on a secure connection.
When I browse to it manually, I get the normal popup to enter my username
and password.
How can I access the page from VB?
I 'm using the MSHTML lib, but any other way is welcome.
thx.

Hello,
I am trying to locate a tutorial that explains the nuts and bolts behind
downloading files via the http protocol through a vb application. I have a
legacy project that was written in Macromedia Director and I need to
recreate it's functionality within VB.net.
One of the main components of this project is it's ability to
upload/download file data using the http protocol.
I am very new at VB development and am curious as to the handling of
asynchronous network operations are handled within VB.
Many thanks,
devin M. arnold

I have not used MSHTML but I have used XMLHTTP to access web pages from VB
(don't be confused by the name, it's got very little to do with xml)
this allows you to pass a username and password in the "open" method.

Where can I find MSHTML or XMLHTML? I would like to know more about these
libs.

AFAIK they're both part of MSXML which is microsoft's all-encompassing XML
library/toolkit
Some versions of IE or windows include some versions of msxml. you can
download the latest version (4) from microsoft. It's free to use and
redistribute
