Set-Cookie
I have a doubt about ho to set multiple cookies.
I'm using apache 2.2 and in my module handler I'm trying to set two
different cookies with:
apr_table_set(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co);
apr_table_set(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co1);
It seems that the second instruction override the first one.
So my question: how can I set two cookies in my module?
Best regards
Marco

Rather than playing with a proxy or fireway gateway that could remove
one of your set cookie headers (because you have multiple), you may want
to combine the cookies into one. See the Message Headers section for
more information :

Thanks very much.
So I have to use:
apr_table_add(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co);
apr_table_add(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co1);
Best regards.

Whether to merge or add
http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.3/group__apr__tables.html
depends on whether you need the various (header) values to get
concatenated with ", " in between and the header send only once, or you
want the headers multiple times, each time with a different value.
What's right depends on the spec that defines the header. Set-Cookie
requires the header once for each cookie to set.

Ok, I have to use apr_table_add instead od apr_table_set.
So I should write:
apr_table_add(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co);
apr_table_add(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co1);
If I write:
apr_table_set(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co);
apr_table_merge(r->headers_out, "Set-Cookie", co1);
is it right?
What are the differences between the two approches? browser compatibility?
Best regards
