Question I have an interesting little problem that may require some out of the box thinking; your help would be very much appreciated. I subscribe to a service that allows me to easily access arrest and criminal background databases online. There is a simple HTML form that allows me to plug in the name and date of birth and it will return the information. It works fine from my computer, and I set up a small webpage using that form's input names to let me do this from my cell phone. The problem is that the form method "get" points to a form action that is an https site - it requires a secure connection. My phone cannot establish a secure connection, so I need to create some sort of a gateway by which the form action would point to something on my site, and my site would then establish the secure connection, retrieve the data, and pass it back to the form so I can see it on my cell phone. I understand the concept of how this would work, but I don't know what tools I would use to create it. Can you point me in the right direction of a solution for this problem?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Answer Hello Steven,
I like your Project very much.
You have not Mentioned in which platform you are working. I basically works on vb.net and ASP.net Paltform so for that you have one class i.e. webResponse.
You have to Play with this class to get the values from the https website and then write it on the normal http site and that will be avaiable on the cell phone. This is not tested you have to work on your own, so please do'nt mind.
Here is little code which you have to modify accordingly
Dim URL as String = "https://yourwebsitewith the parameters"
Dim page as String
Try
Dim PageRequest as HttpwebRequest = Ctype(WebRequest.Create(URL), HttpWebRequest)
Dim PageResponse as WebResponse = PageRequest.Getresponse()
Dim r as New StreamReader(PageResponse.GetResponseStream())
Page = r.ReadToEnd()
r.Close()
catch Err as Exception
Response.Write(Err.ToString())
Return
End try
'define Tthe reqular expression
Dim TitlePattern as String = "<title>(?<match>.*?)</title>"
Dim titleRegex as New Regex(TitlePattern, RegExOptions.Ignorecase or RegexOptions.SingleLine)
'Find the title
if TitleMatch.Sucess then
Response.write("Found title: " & Titlematch.groups("match").Value)
end if
