  LOL! Rewrote code thus:
 
cookie = os.environ.get('HTTP_COOKIE')
if not cookie:
  cookie = Cookie.SimpleCookie()
  cExpires, cPath, cComment, cDomain, cMaxAge, cVersion = myCookie()
  cookie['lastvisit'] = str(time.time())

 cookie['lastvisit'] is a string.

  cookie['lastvisit']['expires'] = cExpires

 Here you're using the string 'expires' as an index into the
 string returned by str(time.time()).  You can only index into
 strings using integers.

 What do you expect the following statement to do?

'1260910829.18'['expires'] = whatever

  cookie['lastvisit']['path'] = cPath
  cookie['lastvisit']['comment'] = cComment
  cookie['lastvisit']['domain'] = cDomain
  cookie['lastvisit']['max-age'] = cMaxAge
  cookie['lastvisit']['version'] = cVersion
  cookieFlag = 'new'
else:
  cookieFlag = 'old'
  print cookie['lastvisit']['expires'].value

 You took the string returned by str(time.time()) and tried to
 use 'expires' as an index into that time string.  You can't use
 a string to index into a string.  You can only use integers.
 That's what is mean't by the error message:

TypeError: string indices must be integers


Thank you.

The following lines aren't going to work. You're setting a value to a
string and then trying to use that string as a dict...


cookie['lastvisit']['expires'] = cExpires

What you got from HTTP_COOKIE was a _string_ (or None). You then need to
turn it into a cookie:

cookie_string = os.environ.get('HTTP_COOKIE')
if cookie_string:
cookie = Cookie.SimpleCookie(cookie_string)
...
else:
cookie = Cookie.SimpleCookie()
...

You took the string returned by str(time.time()) and tried to

That's what is mean't by the error message:
