get usergroup of user in vbulletin using java and htmlunit

Question

I am working on a login system that checks if the user is in a spesific usergroup.

If the user is in the usergroup "Access" then i want to show them the next form. If they are in the usergroup "registered user" it will display "Sorry, you dont have access"

This is my code so far: This will log in with 2 textboxes shown on a form.

I know i should not call "gettext();" on password field but i dont know how to code it so the htmlunit understands the characters and not puts in chars of array if i write "getpassword()"

If the login is successful i want to start checking for the usergroup ID of the user. If i log in, my usergroup is Administrator. I will add a test user so you can log in and see for yourself.

(log in with this "you will be in the usergroup ("Registered Users")")

Forum url: http://svergja.com/forum

Username: stackoverflow

Password: stackit123

(test user information)

After the successfull login, use anchor to click profile link and then use span to get the usergroup. The change in code will be:

   private void Login() throws FailingHttpStatusCodeException, MalformedURLException, IOException
        {
            WebClient client = new WebClient();
            client.setJavaScriptEnabled(false);
            HtmlPage page = client.getPage("http://svergja.com/forum/");

            HtmlForm form = (HtmlForm) page.getElementById("navbar_loginform");

            HtmlTextInput username = (HtmlTextInput) page.getElementById("navbar_username");
                username.setValueAttribute("stackoverflow");
            HtmlPasswordInput password = (HtmlPasswordInput) page.getElementById("navbar_password");
                password.setValueAttribute("stackit123");
            HtmlSubmitInput button = form.getInputByValue("Log in"); 
            page = button.click();

            List<HtmlAnchor> anchorList = page.getAnchors();
                for (HtmlAnchor htmlAnchor : anchorList) {
                    if(htmlAnchor.getAttribute("href").contains("member.php?"))
                    {
                        page = htmlAnchor.click();
                    }
                }

                HtmlSpan span = (HtmlSpan) page.getElementById("userinfo");
                DomNodeList<DomNode> nodeList = span.getChildNodes();

                    for (DomNode domNode : nodeList) {

                        NamedNodeMap map = domNode.getAttributes();
                        Node node = map.getNamedItem("class");
                          if(node != null && node.getNodeValue() != null && node.getNodeValue().equals("usertitle"))
                          {
                                System.out.println("The usergroup is "+domNode.getTextContent());
                          }
                    }
            }
