Upon using the code samples below, I try to send a HTTP request to validate a username and password entry to a PHP script (returning either 1 or 0 in an echo).

Using HTTP Assistant, testing the HTTP Post request has the expected results… But for some reason, when logging the ‘res’ String (the HTTP response) in the java code, I get a blank PHP/Index page:

<!DOCTYPEHTMLPUBLIC"-//W3C//DTDHTML3.2Final//EN"><html><title>Indexof/</title></head><body><h1>Indexof/</h1><ul><li><ahref="cgi-bin/">cgi-bin/</a></li></ul></body></html>

Code: HomeActivity.java and Http.java

Have I done something wrong code-wise? Or is this a server issue?

    What you are seeing there is the standard webserver listing of a directory. So you probably have the wrong URL you’re hitting. Is there any redirect magic involved?

    [edit] As you have controll of the PHP page yourself, do the following: Edit it so that it accepts parameters per GET and try to call the page via your android browser with the username and password as GET parameters . If that works, you’ve at least a clue that it’s possible from your phone.
