Dear respected members , I have some doubt about how cookies operate. Say I have invoked a server application running from the browser. That application sets a cookie on the client M/C. Supposing almost without time lag, another request wen from the same client to the server. This time also, a cookie will be set on the client M/C. Now my Qs are - 1. Will the new cookie overwrites the old one ? Or is it a seperate cookie ? 2. Is it possible to design a server application that overwrites the old cookie if request from the client comes almost immediately ? Can somebody pl answer to my query ? When are cookies expected to be formally adopted by IETF ? Will it benifit Netscape also ? Or Netscape is giving this technology to the standardising body free of cost ?
