I remember looking at the cookie stuff a while ago(6 months or more) and one thing I noticed is that it doesn't clear the cookie list when it starts urllist again. This might have changed but one thing to look at. I was using cookies and it worked well when the first url was to init the cookie.
One a side note..one feature I would like to see(correct me if it is already there) is the ability to use a value in the farmer definition as an argument to a URL in the urllist. What I was testing at one time was the same urllist with different farmers. I had 50 different farmers defined and used the farmer name as an argument to pass into the first url to init the cookies and then perform the rest of the urls. Keep up the good work on this great tool!

For example: <urllist> <!-- script below schould send Set-Cookie header --> <url>http://localhost/set-cookie.php</url> <!-- previously recieved cookie is sent with request --> <url>http://localhost/test.php</url> </urllist> I haven't looked at RFC yet, but looks like we have a very basic cookie support. We dont take Domain, MaxAge, Path and other atributes into account when sending cookie. Additionally cookie code has FIXME comments, so this looks like a thing to put on my TODO list :) regards, -- Jacek Prucia 7bulls.com S.A. http://www.7bulls.com/
