Https POST Request

**munna** · 10th November 2006, 10:45

This is what I did

Qt Code:

Switch view

connect(&http,SIGNAL(done(bool)),this,SLOT(httpDone(bool)));
connect(&http,SIGNAL(readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader  &)),this,SLOT(readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader &)));
 
http.setHost("www.google.com");
 
QString str = "Email=somename@gmail.com&Passwd=somepassword"
					"&service=cl&source=Gulp-CalGulp-1.05";
QHttpRequestHeader header( "POST", "/accounts/ClientLogin") ;
header.setValue("Host", "https://www.google.com") ;
header.setContentType( "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" ) ;
http.request(header,QVariant(str).toByteArray());

connect(&http,SIGNAL(done(bool)),this,SLOT(httpDone(bool)));
connect(&http,SIGNAL(readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader  &)),this,SLOT(readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader &)));

http.setHost("www.google.com");

QString str = "Email=somename@gmail.com&Passwd=somepassword"
					"&service=cl&source=Gulp-CalGulp-1.05";
QHttpRequestHeader header( "POST", "/accounts/ClientLogin") ;
header.setValue("Host", "https://www.google.com") ;
header.setContentType( "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" ) ;
http.request(header,QVariant(str).toByteArray());

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Qt Code:

Switch view

void UpdateChecker::readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader &header)
{
	//QString str = header.reasonPhrase();
	result = QString(http.readAll().data());
}

void UpdateChecker::readyRead(const QHttpResponseHeader &header)
{
	//QString str = header.reasonPhrase();
	result = QString(http.readAll().data());
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

I got result as

Qt Code:

Switch view

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Moved Temporarily</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">
<H1>Moved Temporarily</H1>
The document has moved <A HREF="https://https/accounts/ClientLogin">here</A>.
</BODY>
</HTML>

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Moved Temporarily</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">
<H1>Moved Temporarily</H1>
The document has moved <A HREF="https://https/accounts/ClientLogin">here</A>.
</BODY>
</HTML>

Probably Qt itself is generating this.

Can you please give me some minimal example on how I encrypt the data and send ?

Thanks a lot.

I did one more experiment. Here it is

Qt Code:

Switch view

<html>
<body>
<form action="https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin" method="post">
 
<input type="hidden" name="service" value="cl" />
<input type="hidden" name="source" value="some-app-1.0" />
 
Email :
<input type="text" name="Email" />
<br/>
Password:
<input type="password" name="Passwd" />
<br/>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login">
 
</form>
</body>
</html>

<html>
<body>
<form action="https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin" method="post">

<input type="hidden" name="service" value="cl" />
<input type="hidden" name="source" value="some-app-1.0" />

Email :
<input type="text" name="Email" />
<br/>
Password:
<input type="password" name="Passwd" />
<br/>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login">

</form>
</body>
</html>

The response to this was what google sends and this code works correctly.

Isn't this similar to the code above?

Maybe I have got the basics itself wrong.

Please help.
Thanks a lot
