How to use cookies with inet.execute [msinet.ocx]

[Elneroth]

I'm having trouble setting cookies while using the execute subroutine in the msinet control.

msinet.execute "http://www.mywebsite.com/", "POST", "variable=value", "Badname: blarrr!" & vbNewLine & "Cookie: name=value"

I've tried all different ways but can not figure out how to make msinet use the cookies I put into InputHdrs. All of the headers I put are used except cookies.

I've been trying to find a solution for hours.. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried the right to left technique?

[Elneroth]

What is that and how is it done?

You wave a large industrial magnet over your hard drive from right to left

Very helpful, you are.


Anyone have any information?

Get used to it, topaz is never helpful.

edit: Never heard of using cookies with inet.execute. Could probably be done though, but not sure.

Look, I know from your earlier post in your intro thread that you're an idiot, but I don't think you can be this stupid.

Topaz, I've found your entire philosophy on life:


So what's so idiotic about this inquisitor, anyway? He's just trying to figure out how to use the INet control with cookies.

This is inappropriate, and thus I am making an example of you.  15-day non-posting ban.  Try to subvert it and I'll make it permanent.

The thing about cookies is that, as a web site developer, you probably don't want people spoofing cookies in this way.  Chances are that you won't be able to make the MSInet control send any cookies you want; it's likely a restricted header in the control itself.

Again, it's likely that this is not allowed because of security.  You could potentially use this to break into sites that have access controls.
