XML import from FM website using websecurity

[wmoerdijk]

Hi,

I want to download information from a FM website using XML. The website however user the web security database for added security. When I try to import data using a HTTP request I get an exception saying "could not open file".

I know the problem has to do with passing a username and password inside the HTTP request. What I am trying to do now is

http://username:password@ipaddress/FMPro?-db=Study&-format=-fmp_xml&-findall

This works fine directly from the webbrowser but it does not work from filemaker. Is there any way or workaround to pass the username and password from the web security database in such a XML import request?

FileMaker Version: Dev 6

Platform: Windows XP
