Hi all:
While I'm sure this is obvious for most, but I just discovered this.
Using one browser (browser A) I can access one of my pages and create a
cookie with a user input value.
Then using a different browser (browser B), I can access the same page
and create another cookie with another user value.
Now, it would seem to me that I shouldn't have two cookies with the same
name both having different contents, but that's exactly what I've found
-- for browser A will produce one value and browser B will produce
another value.
Can you provide some examples for what you mean?

David:
Sure, you can see what I found above by going to:
http://xn--ovg.com
and creating a cookie.
Then do the same thing again, but this time with a different browser and different value.
Then quit each browser and re launch each with this url:
http://xn--ovg.com/cookie/getcookie.php
You will find that each browser reports ONLY the cookie you left with it.
It's kind of neat actually.
And in retrospection, I guess that this is the only way it could work considering that each browser has it's own way of handling cookies. I just never realized it before.
