How to get the next page from here?

I wrote the following code to access a https website and do some work programmatically. What I want know is how can I get the next page after finishing the login process .

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls;

ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback =

new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(this.AcceptCertificate);

NetworkCredential nc = new NetworkCredential("x", "y");

CookieContainer cc = new CookieContainer();

HttpWebRequest myWebRequest = WebRequest.Create("https://www.x.com/Security/logon.asp") as HttpWebRequest;

Uri cookieUri = new Uri("https://www.x.com/Security/logon.asp");

myWebRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

myWebRequest.Credentials = nc;

myWebRequest.CookieContainer = cc;

myWebRequest.Accept = "true";

myWebRequest.AllowAutoRedirect = true;

byte[] byteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("logonid=a&logonpswd=b&submit2=Log On");

myWebRequest.Method = "POST";

myWebRequest.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;

Stream st = myWebRequest.GetRequestStream();

st.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);

HttpWebResponse myWebResponse = myWebRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;

myWebResponse.Cookies = myWebRequest.CookieContainer.GetCookies(myWebResponse.ResponseUri);

StreamReader streamRead = new StreamReader(myWebResponse.GetResponseStream());

What should I write here to get the next page in the website . I wonder if I should write another webrequest with same parameters. Btw everything works fine for the certificaiton and returns true.

Thanks

Ala,

I was wondering whether you could post your working solution as I am experiencing the same problems with 2nd requests.

Many thanks,

Thanks alot,

If you want to implement a complete HTTP conversation, you have to send a sequence of HttpWebRequests, navigating through the web application as required. Make sure to keep sending any session or authentication cookies by reusing your CookieContainer.

Can you provide more information on what you are trying to achieve exactly, and what errors you are getting

Ok I am trying to access a https website and get some information and upload some files to it. I used the previous code to sign in in the website first. Then get other pages to upload files and download some reports. Here is the complete code I used.

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
                ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback =
                    new System.Net.Security.RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(this.AcceptCertificate);
                NetworkCredential nc = new NetworkCredential("a", "s");

                CookieContainer cc = new CookieContainer();
                Uri cookieUri = new Uri("https://www.a.com/Security/logon.asp");

                HttpWebRequest myWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(cookieUri) as HttpWebRequest;

                myWebRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
                myWebRequest.Credentials = nc;
                myWebRequest.CookieContainer = cc;
                myWebRequest.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;
                myWebRequest.KeepAlive = true;
                myWebRequest.AllowAutoRedirect = true;
                myWebRequest.Timeout = 30000;


                byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("logonid=a&logonpswd=b&submit2=Log On&provid=&pincode=");
                myWebRequest.Method = "POST";
                myWebRequest.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
                Stream st = myWebRequest.GetRequestStream();
                st.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
                st.Close();
                // Assign the response object of 'WebRequest' to a 'WebResponse' variable.
                HttpWebResponse myWebResponse = myWebRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
                StreamReader streamRead = new StreamReader(myWebResponse.GetResponseStream());
                string myResponse = streamRead.ReadToEnd();
                streamRead.Close();

                //2nd request
                myWebRequest = WebRequest.Create("https://www.a.com/Upload/download.asp") as HttpWebRequest;
                myWebRequest.CookieContainer = cc;
                myWebRequest.Method = "GET";
                myWebRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
                myWebRequest.Credentials = nc;
                myWebRequest.KeepAlive = true;
                myWebRequest.AllowAutoRedirect = true;
                myWebResponse = myWebRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
                streamRead = new StreamReader(myWebResponse.GetResponseStream());
                myResponse = streamRead.ReadToEnd();
                streamRead.Close();

                         }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
            }
        }

        private bool AcceptCertificate(object sender,System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate xl,
            System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Chain xc,System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors spe)
        {

            if ((spe & System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateChainErrors) == System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateChainErrors)
                return false;
            else if ((spe & System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateNameMismatch) == System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateNameMismatch)
            {
                Zone z = Zone.CreateFromUrl(((HttpWebRequest)sender).RequestUri.ToString());
                if (z.SecurityZone == System.Security.SecurityZone.Intranet
                   || z.SecurityZone == System.Security.SecurityZone.MyComputer)
                {
                    return true;
                }
                return false;
            }
            else if ((spe & System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateNotAvailable) == System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors.RemoteCertificateNotAvailable)
            {
                return false;
            }
            return true;
        }

After I make the first request it redirects me to the logon and sounds the loging process is not done right. Pls take a look at this code and let me know whats wrong so I can change it. BTW I am not getting any errors and I am not sure about using the newtwork credential.

Thanks alot.
