How do i send the username and password to yahoo web page through url

how do i send the username and password to yahoo web page through url i.e as Query string so that my account in yahoo will open...

If you don't mind using a library, then download and use the Apache HttpClient library. It takes care of all these details for you.

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

First do the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Next, in Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Read web page content via Sockets

Hey,
I have to write a program that will read web page content, using sockets.
I got that piece of code and it works for most pages:
Socket socket = new Socket(address, 80);
          BufferedReader input =
               new BufferedReader(
                    new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
          PrintWriter output =
               new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(), true);
          output.println("GET " + pageName);
          String response = "";
          String curline = input.readLine();
          int i=1;
          while(curline != null){
             response += "\n" + curline;
               curline   = input.readLine();
               System.out.println(i + curline);
               ++i;
          output.close();
          input.close();but not for the one it is supposed to work:
http://portalwiedzy.onet.pl/tlumacz.html
I could get it to work using this:
URL url = new URL(host + query);
URLConnection uc = url.openConnection();but I really have to use sockets.
Any advice, people? :-)

There's an RFC that goes over the HTTP protocol (or rather, several RFCs for the several versions of the protocol). You probably want to google for that and use it as a reference for this project.

Taking regular text from a saved web page through java.

Hello, currently I'm trying to save the source code from a regular HTML web page as a string. Which in fairness is pretty simple through the URL and InputStreamReader classes.
But my problem is I'm not fully sure how to save the source code when the page is saved on your hard drive, as the (i think) URL class tries to look for a non-existant host.
I think I need to use the HTMLEditor class but my knowledge of this is vague at best.
Any ideas?
Also I''m just trying to take out the regular text from the page (ie. what you see on the screen) and store that, is there any way specifically I should go about this? As I doubt it's going through the entire string and looking for specific tags to remove.
Thanks in advance

Yes, I need to calm down. That worked me up a bit, I'l admit.
Oh, I'm with you 100%. Ipad is a nice 'accessory' to a PC or Mac. No replacement, by far.
I didn't share this, but I think it was in a frame or apart of a link. The ipad wanted to follow the link. At the other page was the same info. Still, I could not select it.
The ipad2 has dual processors. Do you think that could make a difference?
I was advised once to re-boot my cell-phone often. To clear it's memory. Does the Ipad need this as well?
I can select all day long while in this text edit box. But if I wanted to quote you by copy/paste, I cannot. Interesting. And it is right above and on the same page I am working on.
Definitely an area for improvement.

Invoke a web page from form 6i

How can I invoke a web page from Oracle Forms 6i. The web built in has show_document but it only works with a form run from the web. Our forms are not deployed on web. Can anyone help???

The command works except there's one problem. Once explorer is launched, it grey's out my form application screen and I can't use the application parallel with web. Once I close the browser then the control is returned back to form.
Does any one know is it is possible to launch the web as well as not leave control from forms application. At this point I'm working with a work around to open another instance of application which is kinda not neat.
Pleaseeeeeeee help.

Opening a WEB page from FORMS CS & WebForms

Hi,
We would like to open a Web Page from a forms running in
client/server as well as from a form runningover the web.
Over the web, we plan to use SHOW_DOWUMENT (Even tough it seems
broken, on forms 6.0, the only way we have got it working was by
using the parameter that overwrites the current page (the form),
we cannot have it open an URL in another window)
In C/S mode, the SHOW DOCUMENT does not work. What is the proper
way to lauch an URL in a browser in C/S mode ?
Is there a way to determine if we're running in CS mode or Web
Mode ? We would like to use the same code both on the web and in
C/S
Example pseudo code:
if (Running in CS Mode) then
open the URL using C/S method
else
open the URL with show dowument
fi
Thanks

use '_blank' as parameter, not '_self'.

Error 403 Reported when trying to access web page through a program.

I was writing a program for fun, to try to download a web page, pdf or anything from the web. The program works fine when given local file system path in URL and also works well when i tried to access a page from the tomcat installed on my machine but gives a error 403 when tried to access URL's outside the system. Tried to read about 403, seems that many sites does not allow to access a particular URL directly using the directory structure, you have to pass thru different hyperlinks before reaching resource.
IS THERE ANY WAY THIS PROBLEM CAN BE SOLVED.

After 10.9.2 update, https doesn't load web pages through an authenticated proxy

Hi all,
Recently I have updated my MacBook Pro with the 10.9.2 update. The laptop is connected to the company's network with wifi. The proxy was setup correctly to reach internet. After having restarted with this new update, I noticed I couldn't open any web pages with HTTPS. Any browser (Safari, Chrome and Firefox) shows that the web page is charging... but nothing happens... Page status stays in pending.
I got the confirmation from the admin that no change has been recorded on the network configuration. I tested with another MacBook Pro on Lion with my credentials and it did work. Also I double checked by connecting my iphone to the wifi and using the proxy. It worked properly. I could visit any HTTPS websites.
Do you have any idea about the root of this issue and what can I do to fix it?
Thanks
Nic

For some mysterious reasons Sophos Antivirus blocked all https requests. I uninstalled it and now it's cruising pretty well.
The next step is to install it again and set it up properly to make it working with the proxy.

Reading Web Pages Made Easy

Folks,
I am reading the HTML of a web page using the following code:
url = new URL(searchPageURL);
urlConnection = url.openConnection();
HTMLpage = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()));
while (HTMLpage.readLine() != null)
My question is simple -> how come when I view the source in Internet Explorer I get something compared if I read it from my java app?
I would like to get what I see using IE - e.g. going View -> Source. Instead of seeing the compiled HTML.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

The code you posted will not translate any HTML into
the browser display. Connecting to a URL like that
will just give the source of the HTML page. Thanks for your reply. I think you have miss understood me. I am not looking to translate the page into browser display, I would instead like to read the source code of the HTML page.
However, using the above code I get different source code compared if I view the 'source code' in the browser. It is as if the browser source code is prior to compiling any JavaScript or embedded code.

URGENT:How can we submit a web page containing form using Java API?

Dear Friends,
I want to submit a form to a form action page resides in a web site. Then I need to get the response of the same.
Is there any way to do this automatically by using Java API.
Does java.net have anything?
Thanks in advance
Sarath

Have you looked at a package called httpunit.
http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/
This allows form submission, Javascript, cookies etc.

Opening a web page through my J2ME application.

Hi All,
I am creating a j2me application, that has to connect to the server online and open a page on that server, and then upload a file at a particular location in that server.
I am using Nokia 6681. I was exploring it, but since I have very less time, I am posting a query here also.
If this is possible (opening a connection with a server - I have the IP address of the server and also the path to that page), and display that page on my cell phone from within the j2me application.
Is this somehow related to JSR-172 (Which is not supported on Nokia 6681).
If this is not possible this way, Is there any way I can upload that file to the server from within the application.
Urgent help is required.
Thanking you in anticipation
Ashish

Just compile and run the testVisit program as follows:
java testVisit http://www.yahoo.com
testVisit.java

      try {

         URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
         connection.setRequestProperty("Referer", args[0]);
         connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0");
         BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
         String Line;
         while ((Line = in.readLine()) != null) System.out.println(Line);
