download all the stuff that the page you're looking at links too.
the cookies are put in by the banner ads and such like, you need to get them if you want the cookies associated with them.

Also follow any redirections issued by the webserver.

Hi
I have noticed that many websites not only put in cookies from their own websites but also from another party as well. for example in expedia.com there are cookies loaded from expedia.com as well as msn.com. Curl I notice only saves the cookies recived from the latest website(in this case expedia.com) while my future requests need the cookies from msn.com. What is the solution to this problem. I am using the latest version on a linux machine and use the following format
curl -o "/airlines/expedia.html" -c ./expedia -A "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)" -L "http://www.expedia.com/"
Any help on the subject is much appreciated.
Thanks
Rahul
