I don't know of any program that could index this remotely. Not only 
that, but I don't see how the searching would work--how could 
htsearch return a URL with the particular results--the JSP server 
would have to "know" that a particular page was wanted.

This JSP setup seems convoluted enough to me that it seems like you 
could only index it on the local server (e.g. via some sort of 
ExternalTransport script or perhaps local_urls if the text data is 
exposed in some way) and you'll probably need at least a JSP wrapper 
around htsearch to "know" that particular framesets are wanted.

I find this strange--is it actually trying to set the Cookie, or has 
the server decided that since the program isn't "Netscape" or 
"Mozilla" in the user-agent, that it's not going to try sending a 
cookie?
