I want to be able to authenticate usernames and passwords in a web
application without going to the login page. I have no control over this web
application. I believe I can send the username and password in a url string
to see if it authenticates. In other words,
www.somewebpage.com?user=xxx&pwd=xxxx.
If successful, it takes me to a home page, else it returns me to the login
screen.
Is there a way I can use HTTPWebRequest to return a good authentication or
bad authentication. All of this needs to take place behind the scenes. In
summary, I want to be able to tell if I have a good username and password
without actually going to the web app.
Has anyone ever faced this situation. I could use some guidance. Thanks
