+ <p>Note that in three of the cases above that there is an
implicit flow through the login sequence that you describe by specifying the
pages in the login sequence. For
example, if upon session timeout you expect to see a
redirection to a link, or family of links (remember, it's a regexp, so you can
describe that easily), then as part
of identifying the redirection as belonging to the login
sequence, the web connector also now has a new link to fetch - the redirection
link - which is what it does next. The same applies
to forms. If the form name that was specified is found,
then the web connector submits that form using values for the form elements
that you specify, and using
the submission type described in the actual form tag
(GET, POST, or multi-part). Any other elements of the form are left in whatever
state that the HTML specified;
no Javascript is ever evaluated. Thus, if you think a
form element's value is being set by Javascript, you have to figure out what it
is being set to and enter this
value by hand as part of the specification for the
"form" type of login page. Typically this amounts to a user name and
password.</p>
-
+ <p>In the fourth login sequence case, where specific page
content is matched to determine that a page belongs in the login sequence,
there is no
+ implicit flow to a subsequent page. In this case you
must supply an <em>override URL</em>,
+ which describes which page to go to to continue the
login sequence. In fact, you are allowed to provide an override URL for all
four cases above,
+ but this is only recommended when the web connector
would not automatically find the right subsequent page URL on its own.</p>
