HTTP_Request cookies

Hi All, This is my first post to this list, so please don't be too rough. I've proposed a slight mod to HTTP_Request such that the cookies set between redirects are remembered. You can see the proposed fix in the bug report: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=4505 Currently, if redirects are allowed by HTTP_Request, the redirects will happen up to the maximum number allowed. The issue here is that each of those redirects can set cookies, which are silently ignored by HTTP_Request. This means that the final destination (redirect) might not be correct because the intermediate redirects might base their redirect header location on the cookies from previous redirects. Since so many packages depend on HTTP_Request, I thought that it is important to rectify this, even though the multiple redirect scenario with cookies might not occur very frequently. I suspect package maintainers are probably busy so I submitted a proposed fix. The fix uses Cookie_Manager - which is a part of HTTP_Client package, which depends on HTTP_Request, so that introduces a circular reference (somewhat). Don't know the politics of using code from child packages used in parent packages, but that suggest that Cookie_Manager might need to be independent of HTTP_Client and possibly reside under the HTTP root. Just my 2c. Thanks, Andrei squiz.net
