Keeping iPhone connected to login free wifi spots

[trabera]

I apologize if this has been discussed and if it has can someone point me to it.

Is there a setting or an app perhaps that allows the iPhone to remain connected to a login wifi spot. I'll be more specific. I go into a location that offers free wifi but to connect you first need to open safari and agree to terms and click a button to connect (ie airports etc). So I connect but then say I want to check email or something, I need to click away from safari thus closing the connection because if I go back to safari, the connect screen opens again.

Is there a way around this?

I don't know if this is technically possible, but it would definitely be handy.

There is a jailbreak utility...

I haven't used it, and so I'm not sure how much it affects your battery life.
