I'm pretty confident you can get curl to work. You have to essentially use curl to build up a "cookie file" that is specific to the site, and always direct curl to use that cookie file as a "send/receive" stash for that site. 

But you are sending a mixed message here. Curl would be wonderful, but Safari is better because you can see it.  Which would you prefer? :)

Curl would be wonderful, if I could only make it work! This is easy -- do shell script "curl http://www.apple.com". However, I subscribe to secure databases that hate curl and automation, and I could never figure out how to get the password, user-agent, cookies, etc to work right. Besides, all that stuff is set up perfectly well already in my Safari browser. Also, curl is blind, and it is nice to be able to see visual feed back visiting the websites.
