Resolving Indirect Download Links

From: Raymond C. Glassford <rcglassford_at_copper.net>

I would like to know if there is a procedure, perl script or otherwise, that
will resolve indirect download links contained on referer pages, then make
the resolved links available to curl for downloading, with as little user
interaction as possible.

As an example, see the links contained on the "Downloads" page at:

http://www.java.com

where I want to download the self-extracting Linux binary,
named "jre-6u7-linux-i586.bin" using curl, not the Mozilla Firefox download
manager.

I am running curl 7.15.5 under Mandriva Linux 2007.0.
