$ch = curl_init();
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR,
"\Users\Aurobindo\nettemps\cookie.txt");
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
"account=user&password=pass&dest=http://URL.com");
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://URL.com/login.html");
                $test = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

Awsome! I got it to log in with the above options set. Once I am logged into
xyz website, to navigate through other pages do I need to use a new
curl_init(); or can I simply reset the options after the curl_exec()
command??

I tried making a new curl_init() but it doesnt want to keep me logged in as
I navigate the other pages of the site.

How does PHP/cURLs order of execution work?

Thanks again too all the helpfull people, but especially to Daniel Stenberg
who's name I see a lot =).
