Code / Description
This HTML file will store your username and password. When you bring the file up in your browser, it will submit the username and password to Developerworks and redirect you to the R6 forum (you can modify where it redirects you to). This is a hack because my company doesn't allow us to store passwords in the browser. This will not work when/if IBM changes the site.
Usage / Example
Edit the file and insert your userid and password. Then, create a bookmark or favorite to this file on your local. Now, when you select this favorite, you will be logged in and redirected to the R6 forum.
Make sure to right-click and "save target as" when you download the example. Otherwise it will try to log you in as "your userid here" :-)
