How to share session with IE

[Bernard]

Hello Dapu,

You can do the same thing as IE on your forum using urllib2 and
cookielib. In short you need to code a small webcrawler. I can give you
my browser module if necessary.
You might not have the time to fiddle with the coding part or my
browser module so you can also use this particularly useful module :

The documentation is pretty clear for an initiated python programmer.
If it's not your case, I'd recommend to read some ebooks on the python
language first to get use to it.
