Kevin, what domain are you using when setting the cookies? If it's ".nationalsalute.com", then this is a duplicate of Bug 3512. I'm not setting it to a specific domain since this client has a lot of different domains that all point to the same site so I need the cookies to work relative to what domain they came in from (but hey, maybe I'm unaware of the proper way to do it). I'm not sure it's the same problem as the other bug since it appears to read in the cookie and set the cookie. The problem I'm seeing is I can have the cookie window open and see the values change for the cookies and then restart Safari/Webkit and the values have changed back to their previous state as if the cookie information was stored in some cache that didn't fully update until I proceed to browse other pages of the site. Could it be that cookies are only written to disk periodically? AFAIK, it is a common problem with application preferences in OS X. The test page is no longer available (it asks for password). In any case, WebKit doesn't implement cookie handling, so any such bugs should be filed to Apple via <http://bugreport.apple.com>. Sorry that it took so long. |
