Configuration: 2 servers which use two different cookies to help maintain sessions. The cookies are set domain wide so each server can actually update the others cookies.
When a request is sent to either server, I want to be able to update the
others cookies (session timeout time) with mod_rewrite due to an application
limitation (which allows these to get out of sync).
This is a simple task, except that the value of the cookie actually has a
":" in it which confuses mod_rewrite and the parameters since the parameter
separator is a ":".
Example:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} "CookieName=(.*);"
RewriteRule ^/ - [CO=CookieName:%1:domain.com:20:/,C]
With the value of %1 being "list: someData|OtherData "
Mod_rewrite takes this to be:
RewriteRule ^/ - [CO=CookieName:list:someData|OtherData:domain.com:20:/,C]
...which just throws things off :) Does anyone have a trick which would
allow a ":" to be in the data of a cookie when set?
thanks
