Android Question Trouble with Poststring

[Christopher]

hi,

I am able to access my website with

Dim p As PhoneIntents
StartActivity(p.OpenBrowser("http://www.mysite.com/test.php"))

However I am trying to your Poststring example as follows:

Dim job As HttpJob
job.Initialize("job",Me)

job.Poststring("http://www.mysite.com/test.php","p1=php&p2=MySql")

It does not work and I get a 404 resource not found. Does the above code stand alone or must i include phoneintents and OpenBrowser ?

thanks

Chris

The first statement starts your browser with the given site/php to view inside the browser.

Seems you try to use my example. Please put the php in a folder like www.mysite.com/myfolder/test.php:

job2.Initialize("Job2", Me)
  job2.PostString("http://www.yourdomain.com/myphp/myscript.php", "p1=php&p2=MySql")

I use "Download2" now (because it handles it better):

Dim MyJob As HttpJob
    MyJob.Initialize("MyJob", Me)
    MyJob.download2("http://www.yourdomain.com/myphp/myscript.php", Array As String ("p1", "php", "p2", "MySql"))

Don't forget to put it in quotes "" when it's a constant.

thanks . I have made the changes but there's no change. Debug still says requested url not on server . However I can access the webpage from my desktop pc browser (so test.php is present).

 

[Christopher]

Do I have to set JobUsername and JobPassword with the following code ?

Dim MyJob As HttpJob
MyJob.Initialize("MyJob", Me)
MyJob.download2("http://www.yourdomain.com/myphp/myscript.php", ArrayAsString ("p1", "php", "p2", "MySql"))

Whats your website url you are trying to access?

 

[Christopher]

www.rentasigntt.com

thanks

 

[thedesolatesoul]

This works:

    Dim h1 As HttpJob
    h1.Initialize("GetUrl",Me)
    h1.Download2("http://www.rentasigntt.com/test.php", Array As String("p1","php","p2","MySql"))

 

[Christopher]

thanks I typed your code exactly but its not working for me..can u suggest ?


Chris

 

[thedesolatesoul]

I just tested it before I posted it.

What is not working? What response do you get?

 

[Christopher]

the log says "where are the variables ?" and a Jobdone routine (a Msgbox) in the code is executed signifying that the job is done.

Chris

 

[thedesolatesoul]

Can you copy the EXACT log message?

Also Log(Job.GetString) in JobDone.

 

[Christopher]

it seems to work as the jobstring appears in logcat and is good. my php code is below..should I not be getting text on the phone's screen from the print statements ? My phone only shows my msgbox but not the print statements.


<?php

print ("I've have not had the pleasure");

$p1 = $_GET["p1"];
$p2 = $_GET["p2"];

print ("I've received $p1 and $p2");

?>

Thanks

 

[thedesolatesoul]

I see the full message. What is your messagebox code?

 

[Christopher]

i killed the msgbox, but still no print statements.



Sub JobDone(job As HttpJob)

If job.Success Then
Msgbox("this will be fine" , "ok")

Log(job.GetString)

Else
Log("Error: Wey It not working ! " & job.ErrorMessage)
End If
job.Release

End Sub

 

[thedesolatesoul]

You said the jobstring is in the logcat?

 

[Christopher]

yes,

[thedesolatesoul]

So that is the correct output.
It is in Job.GetString.

 

[Christopher]

yes, but why are the print statements not showing on my phone screen ?

chris

 

[thedesolatesoul]

The print statements only become part of the response string.

 

[Christopher]

many thanks for your help. As you can see I am pretty new to the platform
