Hi Josh,

I've inserted the print stmt. as suggested and it looped back to the login 
screen without displaying the message.
You mentioned that this behavior would indicate a non-cookie problem?

Please advise on any next steps, if possible.

** All help is appreciated as we work to get this project into a demo-ready 
state.  Time is of the essence to us
** as our Deans want to see a functional, working demo by the end of August!
