According to the servlets documentation, add_cookie() is merely a wrapper for Cookie.add_cookie(), which sets the cookie in the normal headers, and upon looking at the servlets source, it appears that external_redirect() doesn't use the workaround. You could patch mod_python to fix things so Cookie.add_cookie() sets cookies for all types of request. This may interact badly with (IMHO) buggy software that assumes Cookie.add_cookie() is a no-op for "error" pages. A better idea would be to patch the servlets to make external_redirect() use the workaround I mentioned before. I've attached an (untested) patch if you need it. The best idea, in my opinion, is to fix mod_python to honour the headers handlers ask it to send, but that too will be incompatible with some (IMHO) buggy software. -- Jim Dabell -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
