I am trying to set a cookie in a netscape cookie_jar because I want to
copy to my browser the state of some cookies for URLs which I have
visited some other way. I have a hash of key/values for a given domain
(path is always "/" port etc undefined).
My problem is with the expiry time (and the discard field?) because the
cookies are always reported ot have an expiry of jan 1 1900. I have
tried setting the maxage parameter to 1 day (86400 secs) with change in
effect so I'm confused.
my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Netscape->new(file =>
"/results/cookies.txt", autosave => 1);
for (keys %cc) {
$cookie_jar->set_cookie(0,$_,$cc{$_}, '/', $dom, '', '', '', 2001, 1);
}
print $cookie_jar->as_string();
result is
Set-Cookie3:
EPClubCookie="_$_K8qRg6enW.olfSvih4brJkp1wWvB6Hps_$_ieprod_$__$_";
path="/"; domain=".chemweb.com"; expires="2026-12-31 12:05:32Z"; version=0
Set-Cookie3:
cookie="/images/ochi-097f.JPG%26%23ffff00%26%23fedcba%26%23ff00FF";
path="/"; domain=localhost; expires="1900-01-00 00:00:00Z"; version=0
The first cookie is already in the cookie jar and it works. The second
one I am adding.
When I look at cookies.txt I also notice that the second cookie has a
FALSE in the seocnd column compared to a TRUE for the exsiting cookie,
is this related?
