[FX.php List] Authenticate an IWP session with FX

[DC]

i actually tried wrapping IWP into PHP calls using something similar  
to the technique described here but it didn't work.

it was ages ago but i believe the main stumbling block was the lack  
of a javascript interpreter in curl or other commandline http  
slurping tools. IWP seems to be heavily javascript dependent.

YMMV,
