I am trying to automate another web site function in my apps which requires navigating to a secure web site. When I attempt this using the web browser control I get the 403 error returned.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance...

I should probably add that the site requires a security certificate which is prompted for, and selected before the 403 error is returned.

SnyAc,

Given that this is a 403 error, I'm afraid I won't be able to give you much help besides the obvious that you are forbidden from accessing the resource with the credentials you are providing. This doesn't appear to be a Visual FoxPro/Web Browser control problem.

You may wish to take a look at the certificate and see whether the certificate chain checks out. Are you implying that everything works fine when you use your browser directly?
