in reply to IE cookies problem

some suggestions:
  1. Use Data::Dumper and die Dumper $cookie
  2. Use tshark to examine the traffic over port 80, type http, print the request, diff it with the request from Moz. The result is your problem

    Evan, thanks for the suggestions, but wondering if you could expand a bit...

    1. Use Data::Dumper and die Dumper $cookie

    Where do i put the "die Dumper $cookie" line?
    2. Use tshark to examine the traffic over port 80, type http, print the request, diff it with the request from Moz. The result is your problem
    tshark seems to be part of wireshark? i load this on the server? i have no idea about this....if you could help point me in the right general direction....
    I appreciate the ideas - since this is a very frustrating situation for me and my users (although, i wish they'd all just switch to firefox, at this point!!)

      You would put the die Dumper line, right after you first set $cookie.
      Tshark doesn't have to be loaded on the server, just run it on any machine making the request. The idea is you want to capture the request both browsers are sending, since only one type of browser, Moz, works.
