Changing a Cookie’s path C#

June 23, 2005 Leave a comment Go to comments

When using a httpWebRequest to a page, with an attached Cookie container, you may find sometimes that the Cookie is set with the wrong path, for instance /cgi-bin/process.cgi rather than cgi-bin/ – This may make the cookie unreadable to other pages within that folder.

Fear not, the solution is simple

Dim cA As Cookie
Dim ccS As CookieCollection
ccS = RequestCookies.GetCookies(New Uri(http://www.someuri.com/cgi-bin/process.cgi"))
cA = ccS.Item(0)
cA.Path = "/cgi-bin"
RequestCookies.Add(cAuthID)

RequestCookies being a Cookie Container object.
