Hi,
I'm trying to do basic authentication to view a protected url. I want to access the protected url which looks like this:
http://api.test.com/userinfo/vid?=1234
So I do the following with a WebView:
mWebView.setHttpAuthUsernamePassword("api.test.com", "", "john", "password123");
mWebView.loadUrl("http://api.test.com/userinfo/vid?=1234");
but the authentication doesn't seem to work, I'm just getting an output error page. Am I using the WebView method correctly here?
Thanks
