Thanks for the reply jcpalmer.

My knowledge of an android app lifecycle is not great.  Will using
onSaveInstanceState() preserve the cookie between different uses of
the app?  That is, if the app receives a cookie then the app exits
later, will onSaveInstanceState() be able to retrieve this cookie when
the app is next launched?

Secondly, I'm using the org.apache classes to receive/send cookies and
did not see straightforward way to obtain a string representation
which could be used to instantiate a Cookie.  I really have no idea
how to save and restore a cookie.  Any guidance would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks
