For scripting your way into complex websites, you should take a look at
the 'elza' tool...
Its not curl related, and its not ideal for, say, shell scripting but
its model of emulating browser actions and dealing with cookies etc is
great for getting into complex sites and grabbing some content...
Location varies (check google), but recent copies are at (least):

I'd love to make it use Curl::easy some day...
