Description Christopher Beland 2011-10-07 14:30:04 UTC
I am developing a website and while playing with a cookie-related feature I opened the Cookies display.  After deleting a few cookies in other domains, I opened the entry for my website, and I found that I had multiple cookies with  the same:
* Name
* Domain
* Path
* Send for
* Expires (at end of session)

Some had the same contents but some had different contents.

I thought cookies had to be unique for a given name, domain, and path.

When I turned on Firebug for the site and checked the Net panel after making a request to the site, *none* of the cookies showed up.

We filed this bug in the upstream database (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694207) and believe that it is more appropriate to let it be resolved upstream.

We will continue to track the issue in the centralized upstream bug tracker, and will review any bug fixes that become available for consideration in future updates.

We would strongly encourage you to subscribe to the upstream bug as well (by logging in and adding yourself to the Cc list), so that you can provide whatever information required for the successful resolving of this issue.

Thank you for helping to make free software better.
