login

NSData *data = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url];

Url is an NSURL and it works fine. However I'd like to get the HTML (data) after I've logged in.

So the website has a standard way of logging in with 2 textboxes and a submit action on the form.

So how can I log in then get the HTMl source so I can parse it. Do i have to use something other than NSData?
