a_bains Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 (edited) I am trying to login to the website in the below example. This script logs in using a username and password but then is directed to a page with a security question. This is where the problem is, I am unable to POST my answer on this page. The result of my output is just the page with the security question. $username = 'XXXX'; $password = 'XXXX'; $loginUrl = 'https://www.dandh.ca/v4/dh'; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $loginUrl); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 'Login='.urlencode($username).'&PW='.urlencode($password).'&Request=Login&formName=Login&jsEnabled=0&queryString=&Platform=Full&btLogin='.urlencode('Log In')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "/tmp/cookies.txt"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "/tmp/cookies.txt"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_exec($ch); // process main login curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 'securityAnswer=XXXX&Request=postForm&formName=loginChallengeValidation&btContinue=Continue'); echo curl_exec($ch); // process security question curl_close($ch); Here is the source code of the security question HTML form: <form name="securityForm" id="secForm" method="post" action="/v4/dh"> <input type="hidden" name="Request" value="postForm"><input type="hidden" name="formName" value="loginChallengeValidation"> <table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight:bold;">Security Response</span> <br> <p> Please answer the following security question.

sKunKbad Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 You're going to need to do a second curl post to the page with the security question.

sKunKbad Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Just looking at some examples online, it looks like you may have to set up all of your curl options for each request. I may be wrong, or what I was looking at might not be right, but you might try that.

ram85 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I am having the exact same issue with the exact same site. Did you ever figure this out?
