tom... the following url works in a browser window. you can select it, and the appropriate page appears... http://soc.our.psu.edu/soc/act_main_search.cfm?Semester=FALL%202004&CrseLoc= AA%3A%3AAltoona%20Campus&CECrseLoc=&CourseAbbrev=0&CrseAlpha=a%2Dc&CourseNum =0 what i'm trying to get a better understanding of, is why when this is used with libwww/wget/etc.. the correct page is not returned.. i've disabled cookies on my test IE browser so it shouldn't be a cookie issue.. (and yeah.. you were correct when you pointed out that all this really does is redirect to a basic tree structure!!! which kind of makes this effort pointless.. but i need to get a better understanding as to what the problem/issue is that i'm missing...) if anybody has any insight, i'd appreciate it! i took a quick look at the headers using windump...

Bruce, I suggest looking at the 'Live HTTP headers' plugin for Mozilla/Firefox. It may be just what you're looking for. It allows you to see the HTTP headers in real time, and lets you edit request headers.
