Thank you for the script. It worked as it sets a cookie with dynamic content, creates and enters the content into an input box. My goal is to retrieve a pre-existing cookie and use the content as a <TMPL_VAR> tag --in an input box. However, it was very helpful as the $cookies = CGI::Cookie->fetch; when added to the application didn't crash my application script like $cgi_query = new CGI;. I have therefore begun to read he documentation for CGI::Cookie.

I will try/ask around to see if I can modify and convert it to a subroutine to add it to the application.
