Incidentally, I cannot use urlplus, as it makes use of bbhostgrep,
which
I discovered fails if your bb-host entries are too long.
Hmm, I haven't run into bb-host entries that long. Can you give an
example of one of them? I'd be interested in seeing if my script can
be tweaked to work around that issue.
Upon re-testing, it looks like the actual reason for the failure was
that by default bbhostgrep only finds space-delimited tags, and so to
find a tag that is tagname=text or tagname;text;text, you must use a
wildcard - "bbhostgrep tagname*". This is actually in the man page and I
guess I just didn't read it thoroughly before :)
I think Henrik has plans to implement something similar, you basically need to be able to dynamically and temporarily store cookies and possibly spoof referrer.Incidentally, I'm working on another release of urlplus that adds form submission checking, as well as being able to handle multiple-step form submissions (submit something to one webpage, check the result and submit on that new webpage, etc). I'm also cleaning up the commenting and rearranging a few things in the code to make it easier to modify (including a hard-coded value that I moved to a user-modifiable constant.
