Here's the output of a url header snoop:
n/v: Date:Wed, 28 Jun 2000 18:27:04 GMT
n/v: Server:Apache/1.3.11 (Unix) PHP/4.0b3 ApacheJServ/1.1
n/v: Set-Cookie:JServSessionIdnfl=f15rpktmk1; path=/
n/v: Set-Cookie:user.count=51; expires=Sun, 22-Oct-2000 12:13:44 GMT; domain
=ncsa.edu
n/v: Keep-Alive:timeout=15, max=100
n/v: Connection:Keep-Alive
n/v: Content-Type:text/html
So there are two (in this example) Set-Cookie header (which is valid
according to rfc 2109).
The problem is only the last one is saved when I do response.setHeader().
I could combine both cookies before calling setHeader(), but what is
the token used to separate multiple cookie's? RFC says a ',' but that
won't work because of the ',' in the expires field. Or do you ignore
any ',' in the value field?
Anyone have this cookie parsing code?
