 Hi,  I'm trying to write a bot to login to the scottrade trading site, and
 while I'm taking care to grok hidden fields
 and I've initalized a cookie jar for my LWP agent, posting the login info to
 the form still just returns the login form
 again (no error message).
 
 Are there any tutorials out there that address common caveats for this sort of
 thing?  Or what else do I potentially
 need to take care of to make sure my LWP agent is getting all of the necessary
 session data to log in?
 
 Thanks,
 -John
