Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

I understand how headers, HTML requests, cookies, and all of that works. This question really had nothing to do with that. I think all of the responses have missed the point of the question. It is not "What is POST and how do I deconstruct this web app to use the LC POST command?" It is "Is it possi...

Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

It's such an uncommon way to move data I hadn't anticipated it would be a choice; most companies find it more cost-effective to provide an API. Sounds like management has their mind made up on this, but if a lighter API-driven approach becomes a consideration down the road, LC also has a server edi...

Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

I’ve done something along the same conceptual lines (MS Access controlling a web site in IE). My approach was to abstract as much as possible and use simple commands to do things like setValue(pObjectRef, pObjectValue) and clickItem(pObjectRef). Should be able to do something similar where the hand...

Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

It sounds like the service is working really hard to prevent people from accessing it through automated means. Is it a public service? If so, may I ask what it is? It is not a public system, it is owned by my employer, hence the lack of functioning APIs and methods for easily accessing the data. Th...

Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

As I stated in the initial question, the page requires JavaScript to even load. The LC Post command just returns a page stating JavaScript is required since it is just a rote command with no context or associated browser. In addition, the POST command does not carry session data along with it so the...

Re: Post Form Data to Browser Widget

Forget the browser widget. It just adds complication. Let's see what we can do to get you going with how the site owner wants you to, with POST. What additional data is needed that's missing to cause the logout? Is it possible to load a page that requires JavaScript outside of a browser widget? By ...

Post Form Data to Browser Widget

I am developing a program that interacts with a website that I do not control the HTML of (I am associated with it but have no interaction/say in how the site is ran or coded). The website uses complex 2FA which requires JavaScript and the login process to be completed in a browser widget due to the...
