Hi Dirk,


Seems that for this type of authentication you can use standard POST and send login and password there as standard POST request inside wodHttpDLX.

Can you maybe try that and let us know how it goes?

Yes but ....

The way it works is that a user requests my_page (or any other page) and IF authentication is needed then the user is redirected to a form page were a username/password can be entered and if that is correctly entered the user gets redirected to the initialy requested page (my_page).
If you would directly go to the forms page and enter teh username/password (via post) then you can't get the auto-redirect to the requested page.
From my point of view this new type of authentication should be handled by the component and not by the developper using the component.
