Question Regarding Post Scenario

["Ron" <ron@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   Dear Fellow HTTPAPIer's:


   I have a scenario where I am attempting a post API as seen below.


              i@StatusCode =

                Http_Url_Post_Raw(

                  v@@Url:

                  %Addr(a@PostData):

                  i@PostDataLen:

                  1:

                  p@Incoming:

                  i@@Timeout:

                  a@@UserAgent:

                  a@@ContentType:

                  a@@SoapAction);


   I know the authentication user and password will be bad (I'm doing
   some negative testing) and as expected the API fails. It returns "-1"
   as a value because the post fails. This surprised me a little as,
   based upon a prior set of emails, I thought the HTTP return code of
   401 would be returned here. But no matter, let's move on. So I know I
   have an issue and call Http_Error immediately as shown below.


            // get most recent HTTP result and associated text

            a@ErrorText = Http_Error(i@Error);


   Well this returns me values of 36, and "This page requires a user-id &
   password".  Now if I look at the debug log, I see that earlier in the
   process the expected 401 HTTP return code is intercepted as seen in
   the debug log excerpt below.


   Date: Sat, 02 Oct 2010 17:07:54 GMT

   Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1

   WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="dashcs"

   Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8

   Content-Length: 1038

   Connection: close


   SetError() #13: HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized              

   recvdoc parms: identity 1038

   interpret_auth(): entered

   SetError() #36: This page requires a user-id & password

   http_close(): entered


   So my question is, how do I get that 401 return code programmatically?


   I might be mistaken but it seems that the Http_Url_Post_Raw returns
   the HTTP return code under certain circumstances but when it comes to
   this scenario it behaves differently.


   Any help would be appreciated.


   Regards,

   Ron
