Title Body

I have a situation in which I am using a POST method to host a URL in the safari browser in the simulator. The web page is opened in safari after launching my iOS app in the simulator. To launch safari i have used [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL: ... The post method is as follows: NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://***some client url***.jsp"]]; NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"username=%@&password=%@", userName, password]; NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES]; [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"]; [request setValue:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", [postData length]] forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Length"]; [request setHTTPBody:postData];` NSURLConnection* _urlConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self]; [_urlConnection start]; this piece of code works fine when using UIWebView. But i want to launch Safari using this "request" which has appended username & password data from the POST method. To launch Safari i must call this code: [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:request]; But this throws a warning obviously because "request" is of type NSMutableURLRequest. "Semantic Issue: Incompatible pointer types sending 'NSMutableURLRequest *' to the parameter of type 'NSURL *"... I cannot even use [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:request.URL]; since this will give me the URL which is not appended with username & password(with out POST method). I want to know how to typecast/convert this request(NSMutableURLRequest) so that I can accommodate it in the [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL... Hope i am quite clear with my question. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advan
