retrieve image from password protected https website
hi everybody,
i'm trying to download an image from a password protected website.
i used wget like this command
wget --no-check-certificate --user=admin
--password=pswd "https://domain.website.com/images/pic1.jpg"
but instead of getting the actual image download i only get the text image of the html code of the download page.
Can someone please help or guide me to the right direction?
