Topic: cookies

I noticed FL/Chumby doesn't support http cookies, since we're not running in a browser environment.

Does anyone have a workaround? Or does chumby supply its own hidden cookie support?

cheers

Re: cookies

I'm curious about this too... it looks like you can use LoadVars.addRequestHeader and XML.addRequestHeader to add a Cookie header to your request.  However, I don't see a way to get the initial cookie value from a request, since the HTTP headers aren't exposed in the Flash API.

Re: cookies

Actually, I'm not even sure that you can set the Cookie header -- this page on Adobe's site indicates that setting Cookie is verboten now in desktop Flash, and it's possible that change also made it to Flash Lite 3.1.5.
