Turn off images in the browser, load the login page, turn on Wireshark to sniff the Ethernet interface, type in username/pass, click login, let destination page load, stop wireshark capture. Use the capture data to replicate in LWP what the JS did (POST or GET or whatever). Use wireshark to see what LWP is doing, and how good your LWP code is compared to a real browser.

And if you feel uncomfortable with Ethereal/Wireshark, you can use Mozilla extensions such as LiveHTTPHeaders or Firebug. Or just figure out what the JavaScript is doing manually. (Given how common these questions here are, someone really ought to write a "How to deal with JavaScript" document.)
