Well, yes, kinda. Cookies are name=value pairs, when you get down to it. But using CGI.pm, one doesn't really use them directly that way.

perldoc CGI says:

       The interface to HTTP cookies is the cookie() method:

           $cookie = $query->cookie(-name=>'sessionID',
                                    -value=>'xyzzy',
                                    -expires=>'+1h',
                                    -path=>'/cgi-bin/database',
                                    -domain=>'.capricorn.org',
                                    -secure=>1);
           print $query->header(-cookie=>$cookie);

In the example, $cookie is actually a hashref, or more accurately, a CGI::Cookie object.

Now to pass multiple cookies, you use a ref to an anonymous array, containing the cookie objects you wish to pass. CGI.pm continues:

       To create multiple cookies, give header() an array reference:

               $cookie1 = $query->cookie(-name=>'riddle_name',
                                         -value=>"The Sphynx's Questio
+n");
               $cookie2 = $query->cookie(-name=>'answers',
                                         -value=>\%answers);
               print $query->header(-cookie=>[$cookie1,$cookie2]);

Hope this clarifies things a little.

cheers!
