"/" for a path is great. every page will share the cookies,
KLAUS & Jörn, wouldn't it be a nice default? This is "server wide cookies". If you added a domain ".example.com" You have "all 'subhost' cookies". If you added a domain "example.com" You have "domain wide cookies". the 2 last are often mixed up and there is very little difference! BUT old cookies for "/test" would still be visible to a page under "/test" like "/test/xyz.html" I hope you never have to clean up your team's crummy cookie remains!
