hi, Suresh, thanks for this report. I finally managed to duplicate your bug -- it depended on the restricted page being loaded *after* a non-HTML page -- and after a certain amount of agonized deliberating, decided that patching mechanize directly is the proper way to go. I'm a bit worried that this won't make it into the trunk mechanize source without some more work, but that will depend entirely on what John thinks. thanks, --titus _______________________________________________ twill mailing list [email protected] http://lists.idyll.org/listinfo/twill
