What properties did you set in your cookie?
By default, cookies will expire when the browser is exited. If you send a
cookie like this, it will generally not get written to the cookie folder on the
client machine -- it is buffered in the memory space of the browser.
On the other hand, if you set the maximum age of a cookie to some date/time in
the future (with the setMaxAge() method), the browser may write it to the
folder -- but if it does so, and when, is up to the browser developer. There
are no standards requirements for how client programs store long-lived cookies.
The only sure way to know if the client got your cookie is if it gets returned
with the next request.
