Thanks for you answer.

Do you mean that, if the HTML page included in the HTTP response contains a popup, then curl needs to be adapted because it has no HTML parser ?

Has anyone use (and adapt ?) curl to communicate with proxy-firewall Cisco ASA or others, which includes popup in the HTML page of their HTTP response ?

HTTP cannot include a "popup", HTML can. curl has no HTML parser and does not
care about such things.

If the HTML contains funny HTML, javascript etc you need to script your way
around it.
