Query - Basic Authentication Login related

Hi all,
    I worked with the following code related to the basic authentication login:
            <xforms:submission method="get" action="http://www.scdi.org/~avernet/try/protected/success.xml"
                    id="protected-submission" replace="instance"
                    xxforms:username="ops" xxforms:password="ops">

and it works fine. However when changed @replace="instance" to @replace="all" its not working good(I expected a new page to get loaded). Am I heading in the right direction? Also, why doesn't the post method work with remote uri access(i am newbie to s/w development)?

Thanks

And, what happens?

I can see a problem though: the XForms engine goes into "optimized
mode" for performing the GET, and in that mode, the server simply
tells the client to load the page at the given URL. But this should
not be done when you specify a username and password, as then the user
would have to enter the credentials.

I made a change in the code to disable optimizing GET when credentials
are supplied.

What's "remote uri access"?

Hi Erik,
     Thank you very much for the information. In fact, what I meant by 'remote uri access' was that to send a submission to a url like "http://www.scdi.org/~avernet/try/protected/success.xml" with @method="post" which I expected to yield  the same result as when @method="get".

ie, something like
<xforms:submission id="default" method="post" action="http://www.scdi.org/~avernet/try/protected/success.xml" replace="all" xxforms:username="ops" xxforms:password="ops" />

to render a new page.

Thanks

Joseph,
I am not sure what that particular URL does with a POST, but in general,
POST is supported by Orbeon Forms. What happens if you use POST on that URL?
