Facebook login with cookie not work?

This page mentions why you cannot login to facebook easily even with a cookie:

Simon captures the h_user etc strings, but when I try to login again only my email is saved, and not the password. Is there any way to fix it?

thanks

Re: Facebook login with cookie not work?

Sites that go out of their way to make it hard to log in could well be a problem for Simon.

A workaround could be to write a script (like those on that page) that fetches the page manually, providing the username and password via standard input.
