    Hi, I need help, as I am tying to logon to XING with Invoke-Webrequest. I dont get an error, but it does not work.
     
    $loginURL = "https://login.xing.com"

$req = Invoke-WebRequest $loginURL -SessionVariable Xing

$form = $req.Forms[0]
$form.fields["login_form_username"] = $username
$form.fields["login_form_password"] = $password
$req = Invoke-WebRequest $form.Action -WebSession $Xing -Method POST -Body $form.Fields

    Thanks!

    You have to do it like this:

    $userlogin = $form.getElementsByTagName('input')|?{$_.ID -eq 'login_form_username'}
    $userlogin.Value = $username

    or:

    $webrequest..ParsedHtml.getElementById('login_form_username')
