Cookies that you plan to merge with the cookies.ini file
must be in a particular format.
- Each cookie
must be on a single line. Blank lines and comments are permitted,
but they will not be preserved in the cookies.ini file.
- Each cookie must have the following format:
CookieN(cookie_length,URL_length)cookie_text,validation_URL
- Cookie
- A required keyword that
indicates the start of a cookie entry.
The Cookie
keyword cannot contain blanks and it must have a single digit appended
to
it, either 0, 1, or 2. The digit indicates the cookie type: version-0
(Netscape),
version-1 (RFC2109), or version-2 (RFC2965). Port lists are not supported
in RFC2965 cookies.
- cookie_length
- The length in characters of the associated cookie text.
- URL_length
- The length in characters of the associated validation URL.
- cookie_text
- The content of the cookie that is to be sent to the originating
Web server.
This string (which represents the right side of the Set-Cookie directive
in
an HTTP response header) specifies the cookie's name and value pair
and any
other content (such as a path, security setting, and so on) to be
sent with
the cookie. This string is followed by a comma (,) separator.
- validation_URL
- The URL at which this cookie was discovered. This URL is used
to determine
where to send the cookie (for example, by supplying a domain name
and path
name). The validation URL must satisfy the originating Web server's
security
and privacy restrictions on cookies.
The following
example is shown on two lines for readability;
cookies that you specify must be on a single line:Cookie0(53,40)ASPSESSIONIDQSQTACSD=SLNSIDFNLISDNFLSIDNFLSNL;path=/,
