Reading cookies created by CGI program

[Thomas Theakanath]

Hi,
Within client-side Javascript code, I am not able to read cookies set
by Perl CGI program. Is that normal? Could I change anything in the
way cookies are set from the CGI program to be able to read them later
in Javascript?

Thanks
Thomas.

The CGI script should create a domain cookie with the 'domain=.domain.com'
parameter and your script should run on the same domain as specified by this
parameter for this to work for you.

I tried it; but doesn't seem to work. Is there any resources available
on the net to know more about this requirement?
