Hi,

In continue to another post which I have in this news group, I was
able to find out some more details about the problem

What is my problem?

I currently build some kind of web-service which illustrates the
web-site login, some query and retrieve some data from this websites.

I have a website which I'm not able to login into (although I pass all
the variables which need to be sent) and I'm getting the same error:
"Your session has expired. Please login again.".

The wired part that if I'm taking the URL which I generate, and place
it in the IE browser, I'm login successfully, but when I'm using is
through the HTTWebRequest (doesn't matter if I'm using GET/POST) I'm
not able to login.

What I've found so far?

>From what I was able to figure out, it's something which related to
cookies. If I'm disabling the cookies on my IE I see that I'm not able
to login to the website (get the same error message).
Nevertheless, when I enables the cookies (and also succeed to login to
the website) I wasn't able to see any cookie in my cookies folder
which belongs to this website.

Is there any setting which I need to set in my HTTWebRequest object in
order to enable cookies or something like that? Does anyone has any
idea how to solve my problem ?

Thanks,

Ori.
