Response is much appreciated Jordi, it helps a lot in increasing our understanding of how this functionality works. We will give both of those approaches a go. For the link parser approach to work, it would assume that the regular expression will be applied to not just the final response, but the previous redirect response, which contains the location. I've noticed that the issue of applying regular expressions to followed redirects has come up before in this mailing list. It will be great if we can get it to work without resorting to adding the redirects to our scripts, but we have that as a fallback position if necessary. Kind Regards, Alan
