RE: Pluck pages requiring password

Summary of what I found JPlucker requires Netscape Mozilla cookies. Beats me where they are. I did extensive searching of both local and network drives and there are no files labeled cookies.txt. If I remember correctly that's a throwback to Netscape 4 days. Second  the only Netscape cookies I could  find was something.slk and that is program file with unreadable characters and not a text file. Perhaps I need Mozilla itself.   Second, there is some sort of interaction between blackberry software, plucker, and JPlucker. Interestingly when plucker installs it insists on shutting down blackberry when it shuts down Netscape. JPlucker seems to have worsened this by creating a busy signal for something called id=5. I uninstalled j plucker, shut down blackberry, and reinstalled pluckier and seems to be fine.   I stand by original statement. Far from plug and play.     Joseph -----Original Message----- From: Wesley Mason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 7:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Pluck pages requiring password Kannry, Joseph wrote: As I was afraid its far from plug and play. I cannot locate cookie file on my XP machine. More importantly I cant locate the Netscape cookie file. Strangely Netscape logs into that site though I never ember accessing it via Netscape or saving login.  I also cannot run it with plucker as I got an error message about id-5 taken already. I suspect something with conduits. Oh well.     Joseph -----Original Message----- From: Wesley Mason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 23, 2004 5:55 PM To: Kannry, Joseph; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Pluck pages requiring password Kannry, Joseph wrote: Nice but does it interfere with plucker desktop or does it work with it?? http://jpluck.sourceforge.net/ It's a java based parser with some unique features.  If your site requires you to login and stores that login via cookies, Jpluck may be able to take advantage of that.  But you also need to use a browser like Netscape or Mozilla/FireFox which store cookies in a cookies.txt file.  IE stores the cookies in a totally different fashion that Jpluck has yet to add support for. :-/ I use this for grabbing rss feeds with cookie support for places like LiveJournal.  No other RSS program seems to allow for this.  So this has been a godsend.  It also helps that LiveJournal supports a 'forever logged in cookie'. --Wes Oh, and to answer your question, You can have both installed without issue. --Wes -- -- Wesley Mason -- TDPSoft.net <!-- Club88 --> id-5?  Hmm,  I do know they both have a conduit.  Ok, I may retract about them running at the same time.  But then, the conduit isn't 100% necessary.  I can tell you that jpluck's conduit will take any prc's in it's install dir and install them.  Mine is: c:/palm/maosnw/jpluck/card and c:/palm/maosnw/jpluck/ram You can guess where each goes. ;-)  If Plucker Desktop's conduit is similar, just have Jpluck drop it's files into their install directory.  But this is a potentially lengthy discussion.  If you need more detail, let me know. --Wes -- -- Wesley Mason -- TDPSoft.net <!-- Club88 -->
