I read the sections pertaining to cookies, and monitored what's going on
(with the debug on).  It seems a session is being established correctly
(same cookie being sent as was accepted).  my cookie for domain
www.blah.comhas a path of '/somePath'.  Question...when I come to post
my form, the
target for my form is '/someOtherPath', so the cookie is never sent...is
this a problem? but it seems to work fine, as i get a redirect location
(which i don't get if i put in incorrect username/password..so i'm thinking
the cookies are working as expected)..but then when i try to follow the
redirect is when it gives me an error.  I don't see anything wrong with the
debug statements.  Are there any common gotchas when it comes to
redirects/cookies/etc?  Thanks in advance!!
