Cookies and Firefox

It is bit mysterious the way FF stores cookies. It stores them in cookies.txt in Documents&Settings/User-Name/ApplicationData/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles folder.

A Sample looks like this:

# HTTP Cookie File
# http://www.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html
# This is a generated file! Do not edit.
# To delete cookies, use the Cookie Manager.

At times, we need Javascript to create cookies and manage them - more so when you are working with AJAX. So, refer to this article by PPK. It is useful.
