[REBOL] Re: Help with HTTP protocol
From: bry:itnisk at: 5-Mar-2004 15:23
just looking at it quickly I think the
redirection you're going through is because
the page is trying to set a cookie. I don't
know if anyone has done anything to get
rebol to read and accept cookies, probably
not, If I remember correctly cURL does this,
and someone suggested you try cURl recently.
Then again as was also pointed out the site
uses a lot of javascript, a lot, and it
ain't pretty either, I don't think you're
gonna get this site with rebol, because as
was pointed out Rebol doesn't have a
javascript interpreter.
