> iGoogle adds a P3P header
> CP="CAO PSA OUR"
> This apparently exists to deal with this issue:
> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323752
> SYMPTOMS
> If you implement a FRAMESET whose FRAMEs point to other Web sites on the
> networks of your partners or inside your network, but you use different
> top-level domain names, you may notice in Internet Explorer 6 that any
> cookies you try to set in those FRAMEs appear to be lost. This is most
> frequently experienced as a loss of session state in an Active Server Pages
> (ASP) or ASP.NET Web application. You try to access a variable in the Session
> object that you expect to exist, and a blank string is returned instead.
> You also see this problem in a FRAMEs context if your Web pages alternate
> between the use of Domain Name System (DNS) names and the use of Internet
> Protocol (IP) addresses.
> CAUSE
> Internet Explorer 6 introduced support for the Platform for Privacy
> Preferences (P3P) Project. The P3P standard notes that if a FRAMESET or a
> parent window references another site inside a FRAME or inside a child
> window, the child site is considered third party content. Internet Explorer,
> which uses the default privacy setting of Medium, silently rejects cookies
> sent from third party sites.
> RESOLUTION
> You can add a P3P compact policy header to your child content, and you can
> declare that no malicious actions are performed with the data of the user. If
> Internet Explorer detects a satisfactory policy, then Internet Explorer
> permits the cookie to be set.
> A simple compact policy that fulfills this criteria follows:
> P3P: CP="CAO PSA OUR"
> -----
> question -- is it valid to insert this?
