Hi Mark, Thanks for your response. I believe you are referring to the change log description "Provide an option to allow the equals character in unquoted cookie values.". By upgrading to tomcat 6.0.26 and setting this system property, our application can read unquoted cookie values with equals sign created by other application. However, when our tomcat creates the same cookie it double quotes the cookie value. I would like tomcat to stop double quoting our cookie value containing equals sign as other third party applications reading our cookie may not like it.
