There are several scripts in the Library that do things with cookies -- do a search on www.rebol.org for details. Cookies are fairly easy to handle anyway -- could you say what you see the advantages would be to extending the scheme? Basic cookie handling: To set a session cookie -- just print it as part of the HTTP headers: my-cookie: "name=data" print join "set-cookie: " my-cookie To set a longer cookie -- just add an expiry date: my-cookie: "name=data ; expires=" to-idate now + 31 ;; 31 days print join "set-cookie: " my-cookie To access a cookie: my-cookie: select system/options/cgi/other-headers "HTTP_COOKIE" Things are slightly more complicated if you have multiple cookies. Some code assistance may be useful there. Sunanda. -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
