This code is sample code it has nothing to do with what I am actually doing with cookies so don't worry about the password. And Yes I have been using the Netscape cookie notify when accepting cookies from the begining. I get the warning for everyone but me. The activestate Perl docs state for the domain:

"2. domain
This is a partial or complete domain name for which the cookie is vali
+d. The browser will return the cookie to any host that matches the pa
+rtial domain name. For example, if you specify a domain name of ``.ca
+pricorn.com'', then Netscape will return the cookie to Web servers ru
+nning on any of the machines ``www.capricorn.com'', ``ftp.capricorn.c
+om'', ``feckless.capricorn.com'', etc. Domain names must contain at l
+east two periods to prevent attempts to match on top level domains li
+ke ``.edu''. If no domain is specified, then the browser will only re
+turn the cookie to servers on the host the cookie originated from.

So it looks liek I am following the spec, but I am going to eliminate both of these. I also will try the all CGI module version I think Netscape does not like the hybrid approach, little touchy you know! Thanks for the imput this has been driving me nutso!!!! Dennis
