Hi,

 

I would like to use the httpfetcher to grab a websites source html. But since it does not support POST, I am limited to only reciveving the first 512 signs..

 

Any workaround available?
Hi,

 

 

I've never tried it myself, but have you looked at the HTTPUploader transformer? It supports POST and will (as far as I can tell) store the reponse data in an attribute, much like the HTTPFetcher.

Hi,

 

 

Beside the HTTP fetcher I dont really see any other option.

 

Can you provide a link to one of the websites?

If you can't get the HTTPUploader to work, your best bet might be to use a PythonCaller and the excellent urllib2 module. This would perhaps entail a bit more work than you might have hoped for, but would give you a lot of flexibility.

Hi guys,

 

unfortuainly i didnt get the HTTPUploader to work..

 

So python seems to be the way to go here.

 

Thank you
