[cl-openid-devel] What happens after verification?

Thanks for the elaborate reply. I understood everything pretty

That's what I'm interested in.

I see that using IMMEDIATE-P causes my identity provider to redirect
immediately to my site; but not completely;

when I say:

  (initiate-authorization "http://skypher.myopenid.com/"
      "http://handler.tld/path"
      "http://realm.tld/"
   :immediate-p t)

the redirect will return to http://handler.tld/IDx. How am I
supposed to catch this? I'd rather be redirected to the full
URI I specified and then pick up GET parameters or something.

And how am I suppose to use this stuff with AJAX, since I
don't want to do a full page redirect in this case?

I suppose I have a fundamental misunderstanding here, sorry
for being dumb... :)
