Hello, We are using a Python External Method to send a "post" request to a dtml-method in python using the httplib library. But it's not working because of the security of the method only allowes certain roles to access it. this is the code we are using: Args = urllib.urlencode(Args) Scheme, Host, Path, Parameters, Query, Frag = urlparse.urlparse(ActionUrl) Contact = httplib.HTTP(Host) Contact.putrequest( "POST", Path ) Contact.putheader( "Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" ) Contact.putheader( "Content-length", "%d" %len(Args) ) Contact.putheader( "Accept", "text/plain" ) Contact.putheader( "Host", Host ) Contact.endheaders() Contact.send( Args ) Reply, Message, Headers = Contact.getreply() strOutput = Contact.getfile().read() This is response we got from the server: Reply = 302 Message = Moved Temporarily Headers = Server: Zope/(Zope 2.6.1 (binary release, python 2.1, win32-x86), python 2.1.3, win32) ZServer/1.1b1 Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2003 23:45:02 GMT Bobo-Exception-File: C:\Program Files\Plone\Data\Products\CMFCore\CookieCrumbler.py Bobo-Exception-Type: Redirect Connection: close Location: http://2ksvr:85/require_login?came_from=http%3A//2ksvr%3A85/cvs/custom_repor...
