Re: [WEB400] Multiple items in a cookie

["Nathan M. Andelin" <nandelin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Justin,

You might want to look at the cookie API in Relational-Web:

Adding any number of variables to a cookie is handled nicely by the
cokVarPut() function.  And retrieving them is handled nicely by the
cokVarVal() function.

However, you might want to consider the session API for storing variables on
the server, rather than storing a lot of data in a cookie.

http://www.relational-data.com/products/rweb/docs/docframeset.htm

 cokClr() - Clear Cookie
 cokCnt() - Get Cookie Count
 cokCrt() - Create Cookie
 cokNam() - Get Name
 cokToStr() - Cookie to String
 cokVarCnt() - Get Variable Count
 cokVarNam() - Get Variable Name
 cokVarPut() - Set Variable Value
 cokVarRmv() - Remove Variable Value
 cokVarVal() - Get Variable Value
