weirdness abounds..

wget -- this works.. consistently..

echo '' > a.lwp
wget -vvv --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT
6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0; chromeframe/12.0.742.112)" --cookies=on
--load-cookies=a.lwp --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies=a.lwp -O
- "http://www.bkstr.com"

wget -vvv --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT
6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0; chromeframe/12.0.742.112)" --cookies=on
--load-cookies=a.lwp --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies=a.lwp -O
- "

"

curl -this hangs, it appears to be a cookie thing with the 1st/2nd curls
echo '' > a.lwp
curl -vvv -A "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/38.0" --cookie-jar 'a.lwp' -L "http://www.bkstr.com"

curl -vvv -A "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/38.0" --cookie a.lwp --cookie-jar a.lwp -L "
https://www.bkstr.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/LocateCourseMaterialsServlet?requestType=INITIAL&storeId=432905&demoKey=d"

I've tested using single/double quotes around the curl file I've tested
using --cookie as well as --cookie-jar in both 1st and 2nd curls. It
appears to be a consistent issue with the server/curl generating the
cookies/string the returned cokies.

When I just test the 1st, I still don't get consistent cookies back.

Again, running the wget seems to cinsistently work with regards to the
cookie issue.
