Android Question Download PDF File from web service.

Can you show us the URL you call and the result you get?

When I type in the browser the url: http://laboratorio.maciel.asse.com.uy/modulab/intralab/ni/ShowReport/265540?hfdocumentformatid=73 I get the result of the download of the corresponding PDF file. If I invoke that url from b4a through an HttpJob1.Download (Url) or through DownloadManagerRequest, I get the xml code that the web page draws.

To access the url, you must first provide authentication by username and password. I do this process using the following Javascript code and it works correctly.


Javascript.Initialize

Javascript.Append("var form=document.forms[0];") ' this assumes your form is the first form on the page

Javascript.Append("form.username.value='" & str.trim(usuarios(indicador)) & "';")
Javascript.Append("form.password.value='" & str.trim(passwords(indicador)) & "';")
Javascript.Append("form.submit()")

Log("Executing javascript: "&Javascript.ToString)

WebViewExtras1.executeJavascript(WebView1, Javascript.ToString)

(I can pass to test, user and password in private communication).

Thank you so much.
