Is it legal for cookies to contain the '+' character?

It looks like $Request->Cookie will strip '+' characters out of
cookies and replace them with spaces. This has caused problems in my
Apache::ASP application that reads cookies containing '+' signs set by
another application.

Spaces are often escaped to + in URL & form encoding of data.


So on the way in, + is converted back to space.  The same conversion
process is applied to Query/Form/Cookie data.

The only chance in getting the original + data in a cookie is that
cookie generator to URL encode + with the %NN version.
