Thanks, I will give it a try.  The website is
https://investment.datek.com and it pops up with a login dialog box.  I
will try the authorization_basic() nethod as well.  Thanks.

Are you use it's a javascript pop-up and not just basic authentication?

If it's basic authentication, look at the authorization_basic()
method in HTTP::Request.  If it's really javascript then it must
interact with the server-side (or else you could bypass it by
just ignoring it), so you'll have to figure out what it does
and emulate it in your script.
