Microsoft.XMLHTTP - mIRC Discussion Forums

before anyone starts saying "we don't help with MSN!, etc etc", it's for msn messenger, not chat.
anyway.. the problem is, i thought Microsoft.XMLHTTP was exactly the same as WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1 to use, but when i change WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1 to Microsoft.XMLHTTP, i get no response.
it works fine with WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1 though.
does anyone know why this won't work with Microsoft.XMLHTTP?

Code:

alias msn.ticket { 
  var %a msn.ticket
  if $com(%a) { .comclose %a }
  .comopen %a WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1
  if $comerr { return }
  if !$com(%a,Open,1,bstr,GET,bstr,$1) { return }
  if !$com(%a,SetRequestHeader,1,bstr,Authorization,bstr,$3-) { return }
  if !$com(%a,SetRequestHeader,1,bstr,Host,bstr,$2) { return }
  if !$com(%a,Send,1) { return }
/*
it only gets to here with Microsoft.XMLHTTP
*/
  echo -s GOT TO
  if $com(%a,GetResponseHeader,1,bstr,authentication-info) { echo -s GOT TO }
}

Hi!

Try using getAllResponseHeaders or responseText instead of GetResponseHeader

tried GetAllResponseHeaders before i posted, i should of added that

anyway, it doesn't respond with any headers at all using Microsoft.XMLHTTP, but it's fine using WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1

$com(%a,Open,1,bstr,GET,bstr,$1,bool,false)

open(bstrMethod, bstrUrl, varAsync, bstrUser, bstrPassword).
...
varAsync [optional]
Boolean. Indicator of whether the call is asynchronous. The default is True (the call returns immediately).
