hello, all. i am developing an application that hopefully will be able
to place cookies in mozilla (and other browsers). it will be a client
side (local) application, and have 2 questions:
1: is it possible to place cookies in mozilla from outside the
program? i don't see why not, but want to make sure before i develop
this idea much further. what about other browsers (netscape, ie,
konqueror, opera, etc.)? what about other platforms (unix, linux, mac,
win98, winnt, etc.)? any info here would be great! much appreciated!
basically the question is "can a local application place cookies in
the browser, or can only the browser itself manage cookies?"
2: is it possible to set cookies that all websites can read? a
universal cookie? i know this might seem odd, but i am trying to allow
all websites to read a bit of info, a 'ticket', and maybe a user's
jabber im address... this cookie would only need to be read by
websites, not managed by them... any way to do this?
thanks, all info would be great!
