Leonard, Its a bug in Tomcat 4. We also had to make the work-around you suggested. I depends also on if you use Warp or AJP connectors.
There are unfortunately other cookie-related bugs in TC 4 as well. Some due to the fact the the browser manufacturers do not follow the current RFC too well.

Hello, I recenly upgraded to Tomcat 4 and found that some of my cookie parsing code no longer works. It seems that with Tomcat 3 colons come through as colons in my cookie values but in Tomcat 4 they are URL encoded (%3A). Is this standard behavior in Tomcat 4 or a bug? Should I modify my code to URL decode before processing now or expect a bug fix? If this is the appropriate behavior is this conditional behavior, meaning are there situations where URL encoding will not take place?
