How come this doesn't work?

Hey You

4/11/2007 11:10:00 AM

require 'socket'
host = 'www.neopets.com'
begin
h = TCPSocket.new(host,80)
rescue
puts "error: #($!)"
else
h.print "POST
/login.phtml?username=r3MaDi&password=mangaka02&destination=/petcentral.phtml
HTTP/1.1\r\nContent-Type: text/html;
charset=UTF-8\r\nHost:"+host+"\r\n\r\n"
h.print "GET /objects.phtml?type=inventory HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n"
a = h.read
puts a
File.open('Log.txt','w') do |f|
f.print a
end
end
gets

It just pretty much does the first request which is the post but then
when I tell it to get the other page it doesn't do anything. I made this
code a few seconds ago so I am searching for the answer and I am reading
RFC2616.

Maybe Connection: Keep-Alive would help? Google it.

If that is a live password, CHANGE IT NOW!

Just a few suggestions:

1. Put POSTed form variables in the request body.

2. Specify the correct Content-Type for it
(application/x-www-form-urlencoded).

3. Use the "Connection: Keep-Alive" header to be able to do multiple
HTTP-Requests on the same connection. (And check whether the server
supports this)

4. Supply a correct Content-Length header, so the server knows where the
next request starts.

5. Have a look at Net::HTTP instead of doing it manually.

6. Don't post your username and password to a public newsgroup.

;)

first of all - ROTFL

second - keep-alive or one connection per request (few web browsers still do
that - so can you - and you should ensure that you close connection - passing
a block to #open is prefered way)

1. indenting.
2. `else' section is for cleanup. Working code belongs just before
`rescue'.
3. Don't forget h.close or use h.open
3. Each request needs an own connection. This is NOT a Ruby
subject.

require 'socket'
class String ; def crlf ; gsub "\n", "\r\n" ; end ; end
begin
host = 'www.justanotherhttpserver.com'
puts "-"*32
[ "POST ...", "GET ..." ].each { |request|
TCPSocket.open host, 80 do |h|
h.write request.crlf
puts h.read
puts "-"*32
end
}
rescue
puts "error: #$!"
end

Is there some reason why you can't use one of the many different ways
that Ruby provides for accessing web sites?

But why not use sockets? I just want to learn how to use sockets because
aren't http libraries made up of sockets?

Or what different ways do you guys suggest. I want it to be fast, thats
why I was sticking with "naked" sockets. If you guys can tell me a way
to access web sites as fast as sockets then I will try to learn that
instead.

I will but do you recommend another to access the web that is as fast as
sockets?

I don't know how to put this any more clearly.

I, for one, don't know enough about network programming with Ruby to be
able to answer your question effectively. That aside, however, a better
version of your previous email would have said this instead:

I did but do you recommend another to access the web that is as fast
as sockets?

Once a password is passed into public viewing, your *first priority*
should always be to change it. It's not something to get around to
later -- it's something to do first. In fact, if you haven't already
done so by this point, chances are good someone is already making
malicious use of your password (unless you're absurdly lucky). Jason
wasn't just being mean when he emphasized the importance of changing
your password "NOW". He's trying to help you avoid the consequences of
a very serious error.
