   Say you have a site that requires authentication. You may have had a   
   cookie from before, but it has since expired. You go to an access-   
   controlled page on that site in your bookmarks or browser history or   
   whatever, and it immediately sends you to the login page; after   
   (re)entering your valid username and password, the site is nice enough to   
   remember where you were wanting to go in the first place, and sends you   
   back there.   
      
   Are these “temporary” or “permanent” redirects?
