I have the following issue when trying to bridge coppermine and XXX:

I have coppermine set up so that visitors have to log in before viewing the gallery, so when you click on "Pictures", it sends
you to the phpbb login page, you login, and it sends you to the gallery, logged in. Then (here's the problem) when you click
"Forum" to go back to the forum, you're not logged in... so you try going back to the gallery, but it sends you to the forum,
and you're logged in, but when you click "Forum", you're not logged in... very, very strange if you ask me...

Note: My site is running on an "interesting" setup... all pages are php includes, and the forum and gallery are in "iframes" inside
their respective includes. to get to the gallery, instead of going to the "Coppermine install" location, go to :
http://www.construction.surreyyp.com/index.php?page=pictures.php

Coppermine install: http://www.construction.surreyyp.com/pictures/
Forum install: http://www.construction.surreyyp.com/forum/
Coppermine version: cpg1.4.4
Forum version:  phpbb 2.0.19
Test user account: testuser / testpassword

BridgeManager settings:
Forum URL:  http://www.construction.surreyyp.com/forum/
(on the phpbb config it's set at: www.construction.surreyyp.com/forum/   (brings me to microsoft.com if i put the http:// part)
Relative path to your BBS's config file:  ../forum/
Use post-based groups?:  no

I have a feeling it has to do with the fact that they're in frames, but if so, is there some code I could add/change to get it to work?

Thanks a bunch,
Kelmo

Soooooo sorry...  i forgot to make the account.. you could have done it, but whatever...

I played around with it, and I found that it wasn't the gallery that was malfunctioning, it was the frames or something of the sort.
I now have links both in the gallery and the forum, and that works just fine, so I guess I'll have to figure out a way to set up the frames
in a way that it will work.

If anyone has a clue on how this would be possible, PLEASE!!!! I would appreciate some help.
