RE: [Webware-discuss] Detecting cookies problem (Still)

[Costas M. <co...@ho...>]

I think you misunderstood me;  I have no trouble setting the cookie; I have 
trouble detecting it the second time around.

Let me make this more clear (reading back on my post, I can see why I 
confused you):
1.  I set the cookie using the Wiki recipe
2.  User closes browser
3.  User opens new browser, hits WK page
4.  WK asks for the cookie, with self.transaction().request().hasCookie().  
WK gets a FALSE answer, so it doesn't do anything.
5.  User hits the special 'login' page to login, which, just in case, asks 
for the cookie again using the exact same code as (4) (actually calls the 
same function).  WK gets a TRUE answer this time.

What gives?  As I said, I have replicated this with both IE and Mozilla (on 
Win2K), fearing that it had something to do with IE6's cookie code, but no 
go.

Ideas?
