Hi,
See javadoc hor servlet.http.Cookie: you need to setMaxAge() for the
cookie, otherwise it will have an negative expire time - that is the
default, for kept in memory only (session) cookies.
The cookies you-re talking here are created, but not saved on disk,
so as long the browser is running they are OK.
Cezar.
