JB,
Here is the url of the log in page.
http://ldbauth.lycos.com/cgi-bin/mayaLogin?m_PR=4&m_CBURL=http://
www.quote.com/qc/downloads/default.aspx
The source does indeed have a post:
<form name="form1" action="http://ldbauth.lycos.com/cgi-bin/
mayaLogin" method="POST">
The only mention of a cookie is in a line concerning automatic logins
checkbox. Perhaps that is why every time after I have logged in
once, I don't have to again on the same browser:
"By checking "Sign me in automatically," your browser will
temporarily save your member name and password, allowing you to visit
other Lycos Network sites without having to log in and reenter your
account information. The "auto-login" setting will stay active for 90
days, or until you log out, whichever comes first."
So perhaps the post will work, but I might have to use it many times
without having cookie support.
Please take a look at the source and let me know what you think and
how the script to test this would look.
Thanks,
Dennis

maintain your "session" status.
you can't jump to that conclusion until you can see the source code.
in all websites I've built that maintained sessions, I've never
used cookies.
