	hi all! i jsut wanted to report to you all that i
	fixed the problem, with the help of mike sheldrake :)
	the problem was as follows: the redirecting web
	pages, that i was skipping over (going right to
	the page i was redirected to) were leaving cookies
	here! so i just put in a few lines to call up
	these pages each time, and now it works *beautifully*.
	although, as i told mike, it is annoying that now
	i have to call up *three pages* before i can access
	each page! ahhh! oh well, at least i can do it now.
	thanks so much for your help, all of you :)

| 	hi everyone! this is morgan again, with another quick
| 	question, but this page i'm trying to access is giving
| 	me hell :)
| 
| 	so i made the changes that jay suggested to the script
| 	i e-mailed you (added in the $ref->referer, and found
| 	the problem-causing missing form variable to input,
| 	and it returned the page beautifully. (although at
| 	first it returned an error page that the url had
| 	been changed to something else; when i used the new
| 	url, itreturned another error message that the url
| 	had moved yet again! and on the third one, it returned
| 	the page. how funny!). anyway... the problem is that
| 	this page that it (finally) does return *is not the
| 	same the web site returns when you fill out the
| 	form on a web browser*. a page which is another
| 	content page from their site, but is completely
| 	different from the one returned from the web site 
| 	-- which is the page i need! i've checked and
| 	doubled checked my variables a million times, i'm
| 	100% sure that i've inputted all of them correctly
| 	and i'm not missing any. and i still have no clue
| 	what's wrong :(
| 
| 	(the code is more or less the same as in my last
| 	e-mail, but just with the two small changes mentioned
| 	before. i can re-forward the code to the list if you
| 	want.)
| 
| 	these last few months i've thought that i'd been
| 	getting quite good with libwww.... but these errors
| 	are making me realize that i still have a long ways
| 	to go!
| 
| 	thanks!
