Re: Receive Dropbox file

Hi,

when I tried it, the first fault was, that 'Location' was now in lower case.
I use now a LCase() to eliminate this fault.

Next thing: the second redirect points to a https URL.

So you need to use windows API stuff to manage https or curl if you want to be crossplatform.

Search for https in the forum.

Re: Receive Dropbox file

Post by TI-994A »

Hi guys. Did DropBox recently revise their security protocols or something? I used to be able to download media files for some of the examples that I post here, but they don't seem to work anymore. The links are still active and works from the browser. Here are some of those examples:

* hyperlinking images
* playing MOD/XM files
* converting images to monochrome

If that's the case, then I may need to update the ones that use the ReceiveHTTPFile() function.

Thank you. :)
