The first thing to try is to attempt to login with javascript disabled. If it will let you do that, transfer the relevant form info to the mechanize browser, and it should be fine. If not, you will need to look through all of the javascript files, to find out which one generates/receives the security token. Looking at it, the element will be called "_xmlToken". The "xml" suggests that it might be received over ajax, which means you will need to find the page that it comes from, and fake an ajax request to it - fortunately, this is just a simple http request, much like you are already doing - it's just handled under the surface by javascript. -- Rich "Roadie Rich" Lovely There are 10 types of people in the world: those who know binary, those who do not, and those who are off by one. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
