HI all, I am trying to set up cookies for storing my username and use them later on while requesting other CGI pages. But the problem is either the cookies are not getting set up or they are not getting retrieved. Where are they stored? so that i can see them. Also I am using IIS server and Fire Fox and IE6.0 as web browsers. Please help and let me know what is the exact probelm? Thanks!! 
# Create new cookies and send them
 my $cookie1 = new CGI::Cookie(-name=>'user_id',-value=>$username);
 
 print CGI::header(-cookie=>[$cookie1]);

$cookie1->bake;

#retrieving cookies 
my %cookies = raw_fetch CGI::Cookie;
    print %cookies;
    foreach (keys %cookies) {
               print ($cookies{$_});
        }
