Re: [cgiapp] Using CGI::Cookie from inside CGI::Application

["Alexandr Ciornii" <suppressed>]

Hello!

1. Replace '+1H' with '+1h'
2. Are you using https connection? You need to, if you are using
'secure' cookie.

You can see which headers are sent with 'Live HTTP headers' extension
for Firefox.

As for retrieving cookie values, look at CGI.pm documentation: "To
retrieve a cookie, request it by name by calling cookie() method
without the -value parameter". Use  my $value=$q->cookie('some_name'
);
