Good idea-- unfortunately, I already checked this, and the "auto login
form" is filled in as expected. I even created a dummy login page and tried
putting that method name in there (test_login_form) but it's still not
working.

Is there some security permission that I have screwed up that is preventing
the CookieCrumbler from redirecting? What else could it be?

Note: I don't think this matters, but I have a "SiteRoot" object in the
same directory as my CookieCrumbler (that is, the "portal" folder). So my
CMF site is in a folder called "portal", but my domain name makes this look
like the root. So a url will refer to objects relative to this folder
(www.mysite.com/somemethod) but my Zope Catalog still recognizes is as the
full pathname (/portal/somemethod). Is there any chance this is screwing up
the CookieCrumbler? I'm assuming it should just find the "login_form"
method through aquisition in my "custom" skin folder...
