login question

[morkinva]

You know how you can use a url that incorporates the username and password so you don't have to log in each time? Like http://username: password@www.somewebsite.com

Can you do something similar with a form based login, such as anandtech?

No. Depends on the form. METHOD = GET or POST

Okay, so from what I gather, it cannot be done with a single url unless you have a cookie. Thanks!
