You should be able to extract cookies with that package, manipulate them
and send them back with the next request. The package works well, but
the biggest problem I've run into in using it is: It doesn't like URL's
that contain only one dot. "http://foo.com" won't work. According to
the RFC, URLs must contain at least two dots and this package enforces
that.

Is there any truth to this? What would be an alternative package to use? The reason is, my cookies don't seem to be working. And I wonder if this is why, as the site has only one dot...
