Read up on how cookies work. A server has to get the (contents of the) =
cookie, how else could you make any decisions on the server based on a =
cookie? When requesting a page from a server, browsers can send the =
contents of available cookies in the header of the HTTP(S) request.

The browser takes care of it, and the way and where it stores the cookie=
s =
is hence browser dependant. So to know how to manually create one and =
where to store it you'll have to consult the manual of the browser.
