The Red Cross has a locator page where you can submit a zip code

  • 0

The Red Cross has a locator page where you can submit a zip code by means of a form and that runs through a JSP to return contact information for your local Red Cross office.

From an iOS app, I have the user’s zip code and would like to run this process and get that contact information back… or at least the appropriate URL to link to. I was hoping I could find some way to pass the zip code by URL but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be that easy.

Could anyone offer some direction as to how to go about this? I’ve done some simple things with forms before but I’m not quite sure where to start with this one.

    According to the <form> action parameter, that’s the URL you have to post your data to:
    http://www.redcross.org//portal/site/en/template.MAXIMIZE/ziplocator/;jsessionid=MWwKPvjSWmvz8p4XrRtNLVL0VCTM7fcwfnFnKHpwRhJTnwLMMDcv!-1938881463!-1334769155?javax.portlet.tpst=2bd907ea326f7e9e934afa36c23f78a0_ws_MX&javax.portlet.prp_2bd907ea326f7e9e934afa36c23f78a0_viewID=result&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&vgnextoid=6d65e821cbdf9110VgnVCM1000002bf3870aRCRD

    The field name is zipcode. The AFNetworking documentation is quite okay explaining how to send a POST request. I would also recommend the nsscreencasts series, he has an episode on AFNetworking as well.

    I hope this helps. 🙂
