    XMLhttp login

    Wow, long time since I've been here. Sorry to come crawling back for help!

    I'm trying to get a remote login using xmlhttp requests. Basically, the idea is to send the username and password data via .send() - this part's no problem. The problem arises when I get to the response - I'm having trouble receiving the cookie and storing it. Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?

    Thanks.

    First: Without seeing an example, it's next to impossible to debug your problem.

    Second: Are you sending the username/password as plain text? You might want to look into some form of encryption.

    As always seems to happen, I managed to get it working just after posting the question... Not sure what was wrong, but I don't really care now!

    In answer to #2, it's being sent over an SSL connection.
