Hi Denise,
I did find one tutorial here that might help with the receiving side of
things:
http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/articles/cookielib.shtml
To make cookies, in the examples of the Cookie module will probably help
the most:
http://www.python.org/doc/lib/cookie-example.html
>From the documentation, it sounds like Cookie.SimpleCookie is what you're
looking for:
######
>>> import Cookie
>>> mycookie = Cookie.SimpleCookie()
>>> mycookie['pop'] = 'tart'
>>>
>>> mycookie
<SimpleCookie: pop='tart'>
>>>
>>> print mycookie
Set-Cookie: pop=tart;
######
as the page at the very beginning of the Cookie documentation says that
Cookie.SmartCookie is too smart and trusting for its own good.
Best of wishes!
