There is only the PHP version, you might be able to get something working in Javascript though.

I'll remark this FR to Open later on and see if I can get a Java request to work. The only real issue I see is how to store your user/pass without anyone being able to figure it out.

It doesn't look like a Java version would really work, after thinking about it anyone would be able to get your WebUser user/pass. If they didn't get it from the javascript code they could just sniff it with Wireshark.

The only thing that would really work in a secure way is another server-side language or CGI module instead of PHP; which if your server has problems with PHP it probably would have problems with CGI and other languages.

Have you tried running WebRequest v2 on your host? Did you have any issues with it?

Does it support any other server side scripting languages or CGI?

If your host doesn't support PHP you should probably get a new host... free websites are not really the way to go if you're doing anything that is custom written.
