Hello I am using the IE automation to navigate to a web page. The web page the user enters is a bit like this: http://MyHost:7001/Mid-Tier/home If you manually enter the URL it redirects to this: http://MyHost:7001/Mid-Tier/shared/login.jsp But in the IE automation if I Navigate to the /home (which is a logon page) I get an invalid authentication page (even if I don't try to login). If I Navigate to the /login.jsp page I get to the page OK but cannot login. If you manually go to http://MyHost:7001/Mid- Tier/shared/login.jsp you cannot login either - so I need to go to the /home page . But have a problem somehow. Has anyone seen this sort of thing? any ideas on how to resolve?
