Hi folks,
I've spent 2 days trying simply to read and write cookies! Just before
I pack it in and become a paper boy, can anyone help?
If you haven't time to read below but have some working cookie
read/write freeze/thaw code or URLs I'd be grateful!
It seems I can bake cookies no problem, they're appearing in the browser:
$c_out_val=Apache2::Cookie->freeze($my_hash_ref);
Apache2::Cookie->new( blah blah )->bake();
But I just can't unfreeze them! I've tried the following ways to get my
cookies:
$jar=Apache2::Cookie::Jar->new($r)
$jar=Apache2::Cookie->fetch($r)
(I also tried using APR::Request::Cookie but it seems to be for Apache
experts only, quite a confusing interface)
...but the cookie value is always "cookie_name=cookie_value", and with
some variations I was getting a second cookie, with a blank value and
the name was "cookie_name=cookie_value".
Anyway, even when I strip the "cookie_name=" off the cookie value,
Apache2::Cookie->thaw($value) just returns $value!
Any help gratefully accepted,
John O'Rourke
