I have done this in several projects using fpweb (specifically fphttpclient).
Usually it is simply a matter of retaining some cookies.

you should recall my recent foray into using that code... i had asked about persistent connections because mine weren't completing until i included headers to state the connection was to be closed...

if you give more details, maybe I can offer more help ?

i'm not sure what to give... i have no clue how to gather cookie data and send it back based on the existing example(s) that i've seen :(

i do know that i was unable to use the REST site's sample wget cookie stuff make requests to the "normal" login site... i don't know how to state that properly since i'm not sure how either site is really working in this aspect... i only know that the cookie stuff apparently didn't work as described by simply changing the site address from one to the other...

Without more details, it is hard to give advice. I can only say that I do something similar to what you describe with fphttpclient.
If the persistent connection is a problem, you can try synapses httpsend class.
