MS Web Browser activeX issue

[dorutzu]

Hi! I have a problem :) Well, I have a MS Web Browser activeX in my application, and I want to fill in automatically the username and password in a htaccess authenticatification window (like logs.powerhouseprogramming.com [^]). If you have any idea at all how to do this, please let me know. Thanks! PS: you can write directly to dorutzu@personal.ro

You probably could use appropriate POST request, but it will require some winsock spying. I assume that site intstalls cookie on authorisation. However, I would probably go with well tested by me techniques of just writing win32 hook, or spawning a separate thread: that will wait for: 1. ShowWindow or FindWindow (Caption: "Enter Network Password", class #32770(Dialog)); 2. GetDlgItem(0x411) -> should exist, it should be static control and GetWindowText should return "logs.powerhouseprogramming.com"; 3. GetDlgItem(0x4C2) -> should exist, it should be edit control and here you SetWindowText to "UserName"; 3. GetDlgItem(0x4C3) -> should exist, it should be edit control and here you SetWindowText to "Password"; 4. After you've done all 3 above: just Send or PostMessage to the dialog: WM_COMMAND, IDOK --> "OK" button has id=1 (IDOK)... Use SPY to see if I'm right in above sequence. Don't blame me, not the best solution: but fast to implement... Regards "...Ability to type is not enough to become a Programmer. Unless you type in VB. But then again you have to type really fast..." Me
