title: Android getting unexpected response from remote server call
body: <p>I am trying to send a call to a remote server with user credentials, and get back a true/false for whether the persons credentials match. But my code is returning the credentials right back to me in JSON lol</p>
  
  <pre><code>        try 
          {               
              String query = String.format("login=%s&amp;password=%s", 
                       URLEncoder.encode(myEmail, charset), 
                       URLEncoder.encode(myPassword, charset));
  
              final URL url = new URL( myUrl + "?" + query );
  
  
  
              final HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
              conn.setDoOutput(true); 
              conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
  
              conn.setRequestProperty("login", myEmail);
              conn.setRequestProperty("password", myPassword);
  
              conn.setUseCaches(false);
  
              final InputStream is = conn.getInputStream();
              final byte[] buffer = new byte[8196];
              int readCount;
              final StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
              while ((readCount = is.read(buffer)) &gt; -1) 
              {
                  builder.append(new String(buffer, 0, readCount));
              }
  
              response = builder.toString();      
              Log.d( "After call, response: " , " " + response);
          } 
          catch (Exception e) 
          {
                  Log.d( "Exception: " , "Yup");
                  e.printStackTrace();
          }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Would anyone know how I can get the output from the server instead of this stuff that I get back now?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
