Re: Cookie Bug?

Actually, maybe I'm now being too http-unit centric.

If my goal is to setup a servlet which downloads and parses information from
a website, but the only way to gain access to the website is to have the
servlet use cookie values from the user's browser then, perhaps, I should be
looking into servlet code that does this, not necessary httpunit code,
correct?
