Here's what comes back in the headers of the first request. Is this helpful?

Hi Thom,
The 2109 implementation uses the version of the cookies set by the
server. My guess is that the Set-Cookie header is setting the cookies
with version 0. This is what 2109 will send back.

OK, I think I'm beginning to understand what's going on with my cookie

Here is my sourcecode:

Now the problem appears to be that my cookie doesn't make it from the
first request for login into the second request to do something. I've
been researching this and have maybe figured something out.
As you can see in my source, I am using CookiePolicy.RFC_2109. I pulled
the spec for this from http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2109.txt which says:
Version=version
Required. The Version attribute, a decimal integer, identifies to
which version of the state management specification the cookie
conforms. For this specification, Version=1 applies.
But in my request header, when it sends the cookies back, it says:
Cookie: $Version=0; id=bmedia
Cookie: $Version=0; pw=solutions
Cookie: $Version=0; listing_search=
Cookie: $Version=0; listing_keyword=
Cookie: $Version=0; listing_pagenum=1
According to RFC_2109, shouldn't this be $Version=1? Could this be
causing me to lose my login information on following attempts to access
the web page?
Please advise.
Thanks.
