    <p>I'm building a WebApp using Spring. It is secured by Spring Security and should be accessed from an Android app too. In the web-version i'm using a basic login page.</p> <p>To authenticate from Android i plan to just send an http request to the standard authentication url /j_spring_security_check with the credentials. And then allways send the cookie with every new request to stay authenticated.</p> <p>Because the whole WebApp should only be accessed by logged in users, it is necessary to login at every startup of a Session. I tried to send the described Request via a simple html formular:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;Test&lt;/title&gt;&lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;form action="http://localhost:8080/livefeedback/j_spring_security_check" method="post"&gt; &lt;input type="text", name="j_username" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="password" name="jpassword" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>For the sake of clarity: I want to send a http request from the android app similar to the one generated by sending this html form.</p> <p>But I am just redirected to my standard login page. I think it's because I have to receive a session id from spring before attempting to login. And I'm not shure if there is a better way to login from the android app.</p> <p>Here is my http configuration in spring-security.xml:</p> <pre><code>&lt;http use-expressions="true" auto-config="true"&gt; &lt;intercept-url pattern="/login" access="permitAll"/&gt; &lt;access-denied-handler /&gt; &lt;form-login login-page="/login" default-target-url="/"/&gt; &lt;logout /&gt; &lt;/http&gt; </code></pre> <p>thanking you in anticipation for every hint!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
