Pass Javascript Session Cookie to LiveCode Variable?

[matthias_livecode_150811 at m-r-d.de]

Hi Rick,

i just did a quick test and created an html file which wrote a cookie with javascript

<script type="text/javascript"> 
 document.cookie = "username=Rick"; 
</script>

Then in LC Server i used the array $_cookie to read the content of the cookie

Doing a
put $_Cookie["username"] 

returned  Rick


Regards
Matthias
