Thanks Sheryl. I'll try that.

Also, another question..

I'm trying to automate a login script in python using twill. when i do
this via cmd line in twill, everything works as expected and I get the
appropriate sessions/cookies. However, these same variables won't return
when i run the python script? Do I need to pass/return them some how?

Here's what I'm doing...

>>twill-sh
>> extend_with filename
>>login someusername somepassword
>>show_cookies #coorect vars don't print

File...

#!/usr/bin/python
from twill.commands import *
def login(u, p):
        go('http://someurl')
        fv(1, 'username', u)
        fv(1, 'password', p)
        submit

Appreciate your help!

JJ
