Secure Cookie Tests

https://demo.borland.com/testsite/cookie_counter.asp

These two tests use secure marked cookies and will only be transmitted if the communications channel is a secure one. Currently this means that secure cookies will only be sent to HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) servers.

Very Long Cookie and Cookie Counter without the PATH option

The following sample reproduces a problem at Netscape, where the server does NOT set the path option of cookies and SilkPerformer compared also the "filename/object" part of the URL rather than the path only. Note that this sample does NOT set the PATH option of the cookie, thus the browser extract the path out of the URL. Note that a call to /testsite/cookie_verylong.asp does not allow the browser to send the cookie also to /cookie_verylong.asp:
cookie_verylong.asp
note that the active server pages set the PATH option of the cookie always to "/"
cookie_verylong.asp?leftval1=rightval1&leftval2=&rightval3#bookmark
when the server doesnt provide the path option then make sure that SilkPerformer extracts the path without query string and filename.

Cookie with optional properties

The following sample can be used to reproduce a problem at Security First - they used an additional "space" before the slash: path=" /".

Server Deletes JavaScript Cookie

This sample derives from support case #371.
In short: a cookie is set using JavaScript, which is then deleted by the Server's Set-Cookie header using an expired Expiration date.

SilkPerformer's problem is that the scripted

WebCookieSet("ClientSideCookie=1; path=/; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1998 12:00:00 GMT ...
has the expiration date is in the past and therefor never set during replay.
