Thanks for all of the input! I have tried a new tactic, using CURL. I've had some success with grabbing a web page, but when I try to pass credentials, I get an error. I tried following examples from various sites (which all had different implementations), but I was unsuccessful. Here is the file I came up with: <?php $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'user:password') curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); ?> I get the following error: Parse error: parse error in /var/www/html/sess6.php on line 8 If anyone has a suggestion, I would greatly appreciate it.

Have a look at a simple tutorial, like this Zend one. http://www.zend.com/php/beginners/php101-10.php News1 wrote: > Rory, > > Thanks for the feedback -- I will try to be clearer. > > Yes, I want to login into a web page and from there get to another webpage. > > The webcams are on my network.
