You have to write a cookie manager (and maybe give it to the ICS community). Not very difficult to write. A cookie is a quartet: name, value, path and expiration date. The name is the key. To implement a cookie manager, create a new component (TCookieManager), embbed a TStringList to stroe the cookies names. A TStringList can have an object associated with each string so it is easy to create a small object (TCookieObject) with value, path and expiration date data, and probably a few methods to handle them. TCookieManager could have methods such as procedure TCookieManager.AddCookie(const Name, Value, Path : String; Expiration : TDateTime); function GetCookieValue(const Path : String) : String; procedure SaveToStream; procedure LoadFromStream; procedure Clear; procedure RemoveTimedout; and maybe some other method you could think of... Once the CookieManager is operating, and you have a wroking application using it thru the HTTP component events, it will be easier to add a property CookieManager into the HTTP component and make it's use as transparent as possible. That was just some ideas I have... btw: Please do not post messages with high priority flag toggled on. Your messages are not more urgent than messages from others. -- Contribute to the SSL Effort.
