Hello,

Here's an interesting question which deals with Oracle Web Server.

my pl/sql procedure(say ShowLogin) generates an HTML FORM for accepting User id and password.
When user clicks "Login" button, the fields are POSTed to another procedure (say HoldLoginInfo).

3 This procedure HoldLoginInfo has an html form too with some hidden fields in addition to userid and password.

Fields are assigned default values where ever null (for sake of simplicity)

4. Then HoldLoginInfo procedure POSTs to a URL(this program accessed through the URL is not written pl/sql toolkit but in cold fusion and is a black box for my case) that will process the fields and return text/plain output to browser. So this URL's job is only to process the login info. and return results.

QUESTION:
5. How can I capture the output from "that URL"? I need to parse the output and depending on the outcome, show the application home page generated by the PL/SQL toolkit. So basically, I need to capture that output in HoldLoginInfo procedure to parse it.

Confused? Hope not. Any help/pointers/sample Code appreciated.

Thanks,

Manish
