I've revised the code thus:
cookie = os.environ.has_key('HTTP_COOKIE')
if not cookie:
cookie = Cookie.SimpleCookie()
cExpires, cPath, cComment, cDomain, cMaxAge, cVersion = myCookie()
cookie['lastvisit'] = str(time.time())
cookie['lastvisit']['expires'] = cExpires
cookie['lastvisit']['path'] = cPath
cookie['lastvisit']['comment'] = cComment
cookie['lastvisit']['domain'] = cDomain
cookie['lastvisit']['max-age'] = cMaxAge
cookie['lastvisit']['version'] = cVersion
print cookie
cookieFlag = 'new'
Unfortunately, this still prints "new" for the cookieFlag no matter how many
times I refresh. Please advise.
TIA,
beno
