You don't know how to write what? The cookie? Using COOKIEJAR, you'll get all
known cookies written to the given file when you close the curl "handle".

By loading/setting the cookie before a request, possibly by using COOKIEFILE.

[source code cut out]
The source looked fine to me (not being a PHP hacker at all). What is it more
exactly that doesn't work?
What about adding some traces (VERBOSE or similar) to display:
* What your requests look like (do they include the proper cookies?)
* I'd guess you need FOLLOWLOCATION.
* What the response-headers look like.
