XML with Cookies / Sessions

[RudeYute]

Hi,

I am trying to write a bit of XML to allow me to login to a service and send a message. Basically, it will use some software to automate it all, saving having to manually login and do it all.

I have logged the headers of the whole process, and have coded what I thought would be along the right lines. However, the URL's being used have sessions, and so not sure how to get the sessions into the URL.

To better explain, I am trying to login to

http://www.orange.co.uk

and send a text message. It used to be possible, but has since changed using sessions.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

This would be unrelated to XML.

Since the session management is being accomplished through the URL, you need to focus on the part of your application that is specific to the URL. You will also need to know how to capture the session information in the HTTP payload being returned to you.

It is also possible that the session information is being returned in a cookie (an HTTP header not a part of the URL or HTTP payload).

Frankly, this is probably a subject better suited to a forum that specializes in the programming language you are using, since this type of issue is typically a matter of finding the correct function in the language's support library.
