Mechanize has its own set of cookies. So you could be logged in with
Mechanize, and not logged in with Firefox. I found a blog where
tenderlove
says you can serialize cookies (
http://tenderlovemaking.com/2006/06/22/new-stuff-in-ruby-mechanize-050/),
so
there is probably a way to share them with Fx, but it might take some
effort
to find or write, I really don’t know.
