Hi Katelyn, thanks for working on this ? and apologies for the delay in
responding.

The approach looks reasonable enough (given that this is a pile of
hacks on hacks to do special-case parsing of HTML, I'm not going to be
too picky!). It looks like you're generating a 'form' for the user to
full in, which doesn't actually have any queries in it. So in the
text-mode version, there's no user interaction, right? You just get
shown the contents of the textarea, and it proceeds directly to
connection?

In the GUI it'll be different ? you still have to click a 'Login'
button to proceed with the "sn-postauth-proceed" action, which is
stored in a hidden (OC_FORM_OPT_HIDDEN) field in the user-interaction
request.

But in the GUI the progress message 'Post Sign-In Message:...' that
you've added won't be shown ? you'll want to put that into form->banner 
instead, I think.

Finally...?

+????????????/* display the post sign-in message, if any */
+????????????char *fieldname = calloc(1, sizeof(char));
+????????????xmlnode_get_prop(child, "name", &fieldname);

I'd prefer just to set 'fieldname' to NULL there. Or even use
xmlGetProp() directly. And then if (fieldname && !strcasecmp...)

I originally thought that was buggy and a complete misunderstanding of
char pointers... then realised it actually wasn't broken... and
*finally* realised you probably meant it that way, and it was entirely
sane. But just not my preferred approach :)
