I used cURL to grab the pages. Their system sent three cookies and used tons of redirects to set their session and validate logins. So basically I ended up with something like this: define('_COOKIEJAR', '/tmp/cjar_'. session_id()); define('_COOKIEFILE', _COOKIEJAR); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, _COOKIEJAR); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, _COOKIEJAR); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, TRUE); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE); I'm sure this is all wrong, but it was all I could come up with. ;) I have headers turned on so that I can parse them to get the header redirect history so that I can track a sort of "browser history." Curl just reported the original url even though I was three redirects away from what curl thinks it is. My point is that I have headers turned on and the cookie jar files get wrote to /tmp. So am I misunderstanding that you said it is one or the other? Let me know if I'm wrong, thanks!
