Introduction to Cookies

A cookie is a small piece of information (a string) that can be stored on a client computer, and later retrieved by the same or a related page. As cookies are often abused by commercial sites, be aware that many people refuse cookies, so do not depend on them.

This page allows you to set cookies, and when it is (re)loaded, it shows you the cookies it found.

These are the cookies you sent to perl

END $httpcookie = $ENV{'HTTP_COOKIE'}; print $httpcookie; print "\n
    \n"; foreach (split /; /,$httpcookie) { print "
  1. $_
    2. \n"; } print <

    These are your cookies according to Javascript:

    This includes one just sent you by Perl

    Make your own cookie(s):


    END print ; print "\n\n";
