Anyone know where I can find info on the cookie spec? I seem to be having a
problem(after hours of narrowing it down) where I am using some special
characters that are not allowed in a cookie name or data.
What I'm essentially doing is encrypting the name/data then encoding it
using base64 but base64 uses the special characters +, /, and =. They seem
to be causing problems with the cook being written or read. I have mapped
the ='s into _ and can map the + into - because I think those work for
cookies but I am not sure... and then I have the issue with the /. (which
I'm thinking of using _ for it too but have to handle the case where it
occurs at the end of the string to be encoded(Which will cause it to be
confused with the padding).
Any ideas? This is driving me nuts ;/ (thought it was my encryption part and
spent hours on debugging that ;)
Thanks,
Jon
