Safari iframe cookie workaround

Safari by default discards cookies set in an iframe unless the host that's serving the iframe has set a cookie before, outside the iframe. Safari is the only browser that does this.

The 10k foot view

In order to get around the issue, the parent (src) and child/iframed/remote (dest) site have to work together, if the source site only wants users to access the destination via the iframe and can't assume that the user has visited the destination host before.

# The rest of the work was done by Matthew Bennett and he requests you keep these two mentions when you reuse the code :-)
# Basic code refactoring by Andrew Scheller

import curses, os #curses is the interface for capturing key presses on the menu, os launches the files
screen = curses.initscr() #initializes a new window for capturing key presses
curses.noecho() # Disables automatic echoing of key presses (prevents program from input each key twice)
curses.cbreak() # Disables line buffering (runs each key as it is pressed rather than waiting for the return key to pressed)
