I have to send some login credentials to our server, which will validate them and send a customer ID back. Actually it displays the customer ID on the screen if you visit the URL from a browser. I have written the part the fabricates the URL, but I don;t know how to make such a request and then return that Customer ID into a string in my iphone app.
An example URL to a test account is: https://order.americantaxi.com/ATOnlineOrderWeb/servlet/SmartApp?command=login&u=babarshabbir&p=babarshabbir
Any pointer in the right direction is greatly appreciated!
Take a look at URL Loading System Programming Guide in the iOS developer library.
