Answering my own question. I find it pretty enraging that this is a “working as intended” behaviour of Safari, though I understand their motivation. XHR (and presumably native fetch when it lands natively) does not support the setting of third-party cookies at all. This failure is completely transparent because it is handled by the browser … Read more
A cookie is something that sits on the client’s browser and is merely a reference to a Session which is, by default, stored in your database. The cookie stores a random ID and doesn’t store any data itself. The session uses the value in the cookie to determine which Session from the database belongs to … Read more
Dude(tte), there are inconsistencies, and a bug, in your cookie setter. 1. Make sure path and domain is correctly set The path and domain should be the same for both clearing the cookie and setting it. See your code here: document.cookie = c_name + “=; expires=Fri, 31 Dec 1999 23:59:59 GMT;”; and compare it to: … Read more
When you set a cookie value with one of the following values as mentioned in Cookie#setValue(), With Version 0 cookies, values should not contain white space, brackets, parentheses, equals signs, commas, double quotes, slashes, question marks, at signs, colons, and semicolons. Empty values may not behave the same way on all browsers. then the average … Read more
There currently is not a dedicated Cookie viewer in the IE11 F12 Developer tools. There are two possible workarounds: Inspecting cookies within the “Detailed view” in the Network tab Running ‘document.cookie’ in the Javascript console
As of Servlet 3.0, this can simply be specified in the web.xml: <session-config> <session-timeout>720</session-timeout> <!– 720 minutes = 12 hours –> <cookie-config> <max-age>43200</max-age> <!– 43200 seconds = 12 hours –> </cookie-config> </session-config> Note that session-timeout is measured in minutes but max-age is measured in seconds.
The problem is you cannot add to the response in constructor of the controller. The Response object has not been created, so it is getting a null reference, try adding a method for adding the cookie and calling it in the action method. Like so: private HttpCookie CreateStudentCookie() { HttpCookie StudentCookies = new HttpCookie(“StudentCookies”); StudentCookies.Value … Read more
I know I’m kinda late by 10 months here. But a good option using Jsoup is to use this easy peasy piece of code: //This will get you the response. Response res = Jsoup .connect(“url”) .data(“loginField”, “[email protected]”, “passField”, “pass1234”) .method(Method.POST) .execute(); //This will get you cookies Map<String, String> cookies = res.cookies(); //And this is the … Read more
The problem here doesn’t really lie with ASP.NET but with the amount of information that is provided in the http request by browsers. The expiry date would be unobtainable regardless of the platform you are using on the server side. As you have summarised yourself in your question the Expires property of the HttpCookie object … Read more
