Never mind everyone.. I solved this. The following code snippet works
in my controller logic:
list($cookieName, $cookieValue) = split("=",
$this->params["url"]["cookie"]);
session_destroy();
session_id($cookieValue);
session_name($cookieName);
session_start();
In my java script on the client side, I have a little bit of code that
assigns encodeURIComponent(document.cookie) to a query string variable
named "cookie".
And everything works perfectly.
