I'm wondering if the type of LWP authentication used to satisfy domain passwords, eg the credentials method:
$ua->credentials($netloc, $realm, $uname, $pass)
can also be used to login to a site like Hotmail with the username/password entered in HTML text fields. This is the site I have to gain access to with my script in case anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about:
http://www.environet.gov.on.ca/
Are these authentication methods the same, or is something else required? Browsers obviously cache something since they aren't redirected to this login page every time trying access a protected page. Any insight would be helpful...
Thanks, Timbo...
