karl <karl+pythonb...@la-grange.net> added the comment: The rules for parsing and setting the cookies are different. Server should always produce strict cookies only. So the production rules are to be done accordingly to the specification.
Adam Barth is working right now on an update of the "HTTP State Management Mechanism" specification. See http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpstate-cookie The name production rules are still defined in RFC2696 What browsers ignores or not in characters depends from browsers to browsers. (IETF server is down right now, and I can't link to the appropriate section for parsing the values.) ---------- nosy: +karlcow _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2193> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
