Hello,
# animal is an existing cookie with value as 'lion'
my $animal = cookie('animal');
# now $animal gets 'lion'
# now assign 'tiger' to animal
my $cookiereplace = "Set-Cookie: animal = tiger;\n";
print $cookiereplace
# assignment done
my $animal_new = cookie('animal');
.....
# Question : Now what does $animal_new contain?
lion, because:
1) you just gave the browser new stuff but [did|could] not do
anything to fetch the new data.
2 you have not even done that yet since the header isn't fully sent...
.....
print header;
my $animal_very_new = cookie('animal');
.....
# Question : Also, what does $animal_very_new contain?
Same as above.
Search google for how cookies and HTTp headers work, its all independent
of what langauge you use to set_ and get_ the data...
Its how and when you fetch and send headers and what the webserver has
forom your browser at what point.
