Some might say this question is a bit off topic - but the Cookie class is
part of the servlet package so I thought I would risk it.
I am using javax.servlet.http.Cookie to create a cookie, and I want to be
able to set the domain on this cookie.
I am calling Cookie.setDomain(".whatever.com"); (note that the domain starts
with a ".")
However, when the browser (IE) asks if the cookie can be set it shows a
domain of "whatever.com" in the dialog box.
If I retrieve the cookie and check the domain it is null.
I am assuming this is because the domain wasn't set with the first ".", but
if I call Cookie.setDomain with a value that starts with "." it strips it
off.
Can anyone suggest where I am going wrong?
Any help or suggestions will be very much appreciated,
Catharine
