Hi everyone, I'm facing some problems handling cookies. I need to store and update a value for non-auth users. I need to do it throughout the session (this could be done with session cookies) but also between different sessions. That's why I decided to use cookies.
I tried to follow web2py books' instructions ( http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04/the-core#Cookies ), but it does not work as expected. My problem is that I just succeed to set the cookie value properly the first time. My guess is that I do not fully understand the request/response ```` if not request.cookies.has_key('elocookie'): logger.debug("create ELO cookie") response.cookies['elocookie'] = (MU,PHI,SIGMA) response.cookies['elocookie']['expires'] = 72 * 3600 response.cookies['elocookie']['path'] = '/' else: value = request.cookies['elocookie'].value logger.debug('read ELO cookie %s'%str(value)) mu,phi,sigma = [float(v) for v in value.replace('(','').replace(')','').split(',')] logger.debug("retrieved elo %s %s %s"%(mu,phi,sigma)) ... #calculate mu,phi,sigma response.cookies['elocookie'] = (mu,phi,sigma) logger.debug("new cookie elo %s %s %s"%(mu,phi,sigma)) ```` Could anyone tell me what I missed or misunderstood?
