in reply to IE issues with Cookies

Are you sure that the problem is with your Perl code? If you're setting the cookies via JavaScript then maybe the JavaScript works in FireFox and not Internet Explorer. Verify that the JavaScript works in Internet Explorer and then sniff the traffic that goes over the network from the browsers.

You don't even show any Perl code so it's quite hard for us to guess at what the cause of your problem might be, but as there are far too many possible causes in your scenario, I can only recommend you to reduce the number of variables by eliminating them one by one.

      I think you'll find you need to set "path" in your cookie..

      [% cookie = cgi.cookie(
     name = saved_search,
     value = resource,
     expires = '+1m',
     path = '/',
   ); cookies.push(cookie) %]
