hello
i used inet control, with the method openurl to download a file from a web url
now i want to download a file from a url at port 81 instead of 80
i tried to use the property remoteport:
Inet1.RemotePort = 81
but it doesn't work..
how can i solve my problem?
thanks

i'm behind a firewall and port 80 is closed so i'm using port 81
d/l as byte array the images and then open file for binary and put the image into it
make sure that on the firewall port 81 is not closed either
only port 80 is closed
from what I know, webpage servers only listen on one port for webpage requests port 80, so when you try to request port 81, so nothing is listing on the webpages server to process your request. As for getting around the port 80 block I wouldn't have a clue sorry.
How do you normally download webpages behind your firewall? or can't you?
Heh, Crypt brings on a good point...if the firewall blocks off port 80, how do you load sites? I know that port 81 is (i think) assigned to the server that the site is on, and 80 is directly for the site. May i ask why you are trying to download the file from port 81? It seems kinda strange...or is it just me.
Well i suggest you either confirm that you need to be using post 81 or try using a different control.
