Glad to be of help.
Either way you ~should~ be able to write data to cookies, I'm just not
as familiar with the boundaries on size / etc with browsers. You may
want to use something like FireBug with firefox or the ie dev toolbar
with ie (or fiddler, I like it for things like examining io
traffic/cookies ).
If it's a bug I definitely want to fix it, but I'm not entirely sure
without more data.

Hello Jesse,
thanks for the quick response and thank you for the great work on Tapestry.
I forgot to mention that I am using the latest 4.1.2-SNAPSHOT.
I was thinking of storing user specific settings (GUI settings like widget
positions and settings etc.) in a cookie. Since I need to access those
settings very frequently in pages and components, I was too lazy to use
CookieSource and convert Strings to Objects and vica versa. My settings are
only valid for the session and another way would be to store the settings in
session scope, but since I try to keep my session object as small as
possible because my application is clustered, I thought of cookies. In my
previous application I have created a wrapper around CookieSource and using
DataSqueezer I was able to store and retrieve simple Objects (for which
SqueezeAdaptors were available) just like using a Map.
Thanks for the pointer to the Storage API, I have to take a closer look at
that.
Regards,
Manri
