I am converting all my internet support code to use native TNetHttpClient and TNetHttpRequest components. I am getting the exception "No mapping for the Unicode character exists in the target multi-byte code page" for some web pages I am downloading using the function shown below. Here is an instance where the exception occur: GetText('https://www.google.com/index.html'); I assume this is an encoding issue. What is the best way to handle this to get my string result? function TIndigoHttp.GetText (const p_Url: String): String; var v_Response: IHTTPResponse; begin f_Error := ''; // Used by OnRequestError try v_Response := f_NetHTTPRequest.Get(p_Url); f_StatusCode := v_Response.StatusCode; f_StatusText := v_Response.StatusText; Result := v_Response.ContentAsString; except on E: Exception do with v_Response do begin begin Result := ''; f_StatusCode := -1*v_Response.StatusCode; f_StatusText := E.Message+' ['+v_Response.StatusText+']'; end; end; end; end;

Hello: ' I have been using Indy to download PDF files containing images of data collected by two of our third party providers. It works fine with Indy but i am having a problem getting past the logon page when using TNetHttpClient and TNetHttpRequest. The logon page loads corrected with a GET and the HTML is correct. I then do a PUT with the username, password, and another required parameter. But when I try to download a file, the download is the content of the logon page, not the file I requested. What do I need to do to download from a website requiring a username and password with specific form requirements for obtaining a session? Thanks
