Cookie support would be to get all the cookies from the browser and add them to the request to the server that WebPagePortlet is calling.
When the server (the one with the web page) responds to jetspeed's request, WebPagePortlet should example the response, get any cookies and either store then in the HttpSession of the user, or add them as cookies to the users browser. It's sort of like a reverse HTTP proxy, but very necessary to do all of this if you want to frontend real applications with a portal. Portal User -> invokes WebPagePortlet (for a banking app) -> WebPagePortlet get an HTTPConnection to the banking app, sets cookies, does post or get, or whatever is called for -> Banking application responds (to jetspeed WebPagePortlet), sending cookies -> WebPagePortlet examples bank application response object, gets cookies, add cookies to response going back to jetspeed user from bank application response object.
