Hi Phillip!
What are you acutally trying to do ?
Read the value of a cookie or set a cookie ?
Get the value of a cookie with:
Cookie cookies[] = request.getCookies();
String cookieValue=null;
if (cookies!=null){
for (int i=0; i< cookies.length; i++)
if (cookies[i].getName().equals("CookieName"))
cookieKey=cookies[i].getValue();
}
}
set the cookie with:
Cookie tc = new Cookie("CookieName",cookieValue);
tc.setMaxAge(maxCookieAge); // int how long the cookie should be valid
response.addCookie(tc);
remeber, you can only read a cookie from the browser if you wrote it there
first, if a different domain/server wrote a cookie, you can not read it!
hope this helps..
