I used Synapse to access the web site of an embedded controller.

Using FireFox with a "developer" plugin, I analyzed the data exchange 
between browser and server. (In fact here a cookie was involved, 
supposedly to allow the server to do an automatic log out after some 
idle time.)

After that I recreated the dialog in pascal code with Synapse HTTP 
functions.

I suppose the details of the necessary actions to a successful login 
might very between different sites.
