Http post request cross domain retaining session variables
Hi all,
I have an asp page with an httppost request to bypass login for another .net page on another domain. This works fine and returns the results as expected. I am having difficulty when navigating away from the resulting page as the post request I have made is simply response.write of the xml returned so the page stays on the old domain without a redirect to the new site. Therefore any links I have on the new page do not work without using the fullpath to the page, same goes for any buttons which do postback as the page does not exist on the asp site. I am at present storing the currentURL in a session variable so this can be used throughout the site, when I try to navigate away from the page it does so but the session variable is then lost and so redirecting to a page after this does not include the fullpath and so the browser is looking for the next page on the original domain where it does not exist.
Is there any way I can retain session variables throughout these pages? Or another solution I a missing with this? I am using an httppost request because of the bypass of the login screen from one domain to another, I cannot pass these values on the querystring as I need to maintain the security integrity of the system.
Thanks in advance, joho

Hidden control on the page?

fimine Hi,
I can't use a hidden control as I need the site to stay secure and no way for these values to be shown to the user. Hidden controls will allow the user access to it's value and give an opportunity to gain access to the second site without permission.
The problem is that the session variables are stored on the second site (2nd server), and when I redirect the browser is looking for the page/session variables on the first site (1st server). This is because I am writing out the xml returned from the httpPost and it is maintaining the state of the first site.
I have tried redirecting again once on the second site, but this does not work as it still writes out the xml and maintains the state of the first site even with a redirect in the second site.
Any other suggestions on ways around this?
Thanks, joho

gopalanmani Took a while to reply, as I had to shift projects around. I don't think this is the answer as they are on different webservers. Do you know if this is possible?
Thanks

nbhor Hi,
I am just doing an http post request but setting the posturl to be where I want to post the form to, and then on the other page I am checking for the variables I have posted. Example below (off top of head, so please omit any mistakes):
Dim xmlhttp, DataToSend, postUrl
postUrl = "http://www.site.com/pagetopostto.aspx"
DataToSend = "var1=value1&var2=value2&var3=value3"
Set xmlhttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.Open "POST", postUrl, False
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
xmlhttp.Send DataToSend
Response.write xmlhttp.responseText
This then displays the data from the page I have posted to on the page I have posted from, as it is simply returning the xml of that page. This doesn't work when I am using 2 separate webservers for each site, as when I am clicking on links from the returned xml, it is trying to locate the page to navigate to on the first webserver and the page actually belongs to the second. I can overcome this by specifying the full path of each page in the links, but this does not solve my problem with retaining session variables.Does anyone have any ideas pelase?
Thanks

joho I have had a question regarding how I overcame this problem. Sorry Poonam, your post is no longer available to reply directly!
Basically, I could not overcome this problem using session variables cross domain, so stored them in the db against a GUID which was passed on the querystring as the sessionID to use. Everytime the pages are loaded that require this, I check the db for the session details and then renew the GUID for this sending the new one back each time on the querystring, so the old one is no longer available and cannot be accessed at any other time. This does mean all my navigation links are now dynamic but is something I can live with for this.
I could not think of any other way and the help I received wasn't the answer I was looking for.
Hope this helps anyone who comes accross this problem!

Web Part, Web Request, and HTML form Variables
I would like to build a web portal to display existing standalone web sites in separate web parts. I was thinking I would need to use an IFRAME in a web part or have the web part do a web request and display the web response. I would like to be able to monitor the http traffic between the web part and the existing web sites server so that I can perform additional processing on my server. Is there a way that I can capture (read only) the form variables/ hyperlink address when a user clicks a form submit button or hyper link in a web part that has an IFRAME? What if I used the w...

Implementing .Net Form into an APS.net web form, can this be done
I am new here, but have been searching for a while, and may not have the correct lingo to find what I am looking for. I am tasked with implementing a .exe application that was writen vb6 then converted to .net into a new website my team is developing. The idea is to put each of the 3 different forms in this .exe application of 3 different .aspx pages. I have attempted multiple things to get this into the page and even started to just rewrite it as an ASP.net web form, but even then I can't reuse any of the code since the System.Web.UI.Page doesn't inherit the sa...
Session variables not pointing to Request.Form Values
I am trying to take the value a user inputs from a form and put it into a session variable. The basic code (on Page1) is thus:Session("first_name") = Request.Form("first_name")If I reference the session variable on that same page (such as <%= Session("first_name") %>) it works fine. However, when I go to a new page (Page2) it does not work anymore, the session variable just shows up blank. If I go back to the first page and set the session variable equal to a simple string it works and will show up fine on both pages. Like thu...
http handlers and web form post backs
Wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction for my problem? I have a http handler that captures .html requests and transfers them all to a default.aspx which then dynamically loads in all the web and user controls required for that web form. My problem is if I request, for example, contact.html it will load my contact form correctly but when I submit my contact form the action points to default.aspx. So when I submit it the user sees default.aspx in the address bar instead of the intended contact.html. I either need to change my http handler, modify the action of my ser...
2 http posts, one web form?
Hi, A general question about http posts. Can we have one form post to two different places? I have a page I'd like to post to an asp script that we have online. Since .net pages can't have more than one set of form tags on them, this page creates an html page "on the fly" and posts IT to our central form-handling asp page, which determines the site it's from, and responds accordingly. In this new case, I want to render an html page and post it, but I would like to post some of the data to a second different url. So, the question is, can we ma...

Isolating HTTP request.form params within Session
We have an application that sends http posts to our ASP.NET web app, frequently in rapid succession. Each request comes from the same application (client) and uses the same credentials, so those requests all appear to be executing in the same session. I created a "request" object to contain the request.form params and instantiate it at session start. It looks like the next request is over-writing the session variables populated from the previous request before the previous request is finished. How do I ensure a unique session (and session variables) for each request when ...

HTTP Web Request to site using Session ID
Hi there I have some code that needs to make a HTTP request to a site which uses session id's I have the code working fine against sites which don't use session id's already. I was wondering if anybody had any advice on ways to deal with this. I have investigated all of the client side code from the site and cant see an reference to a session id so Im assuming it is a session state. My next thing to try is to see if the server will assign a session to my app but if that doesn't work then I am a bit stuck. Any ideas or suggestion are most welcome. CheersJustin Hewitt "Creati...
XML HTTP Request Object Use With Cross-Domain Scripting
[It has been recommended I post this in mozilla.dev.extensions, although this is really a general use of Javascript in Firefox, and not actually any add-on I am developing for the HTTP client.] I ran into an issue where my interactive web document presents a form to the user and processes the form data by sending HTTP request to a server with a scientific database. Although I would get an XmlHttpRequest.readyState == COMPLETE condition, the XmlHttpRequest.status value was zero and not the usual 3-digit code (preferably 200).
