&gt;&gt; So, still wrestling with this. Scenario:<br>

&gt;&gt; 1. Frame of page creates a cookie. Another frame in that page retr=

&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; 2. Totally separate page on another tab creates a cookie. Both fra=

&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Why aren&#39;t the cookies created in frame 1 seen by frame 2?<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; 2nd tab does not see the cookie created by first frame either.<br>
&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt; Cookies are not page specific. What is going on?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; This isn&#39;t correct. =C2=A0The &#39;path&#39; component of a cookie=
 makes it at least<br>
&gt; partially page-specific, and the domain of the cookie triggers many<br=

&gt; visibility restrictions. =C2=A0Some of those are explained in the<br>
&gt; specification, but other restrictions have been added to browsers to<b=
r>
&gt; limit cross-site hacks.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Short of letting others look at the pages in question, it will probabl=
y<br>
&gt; be difficult to help. =C2=A0 At least a trace of the request and respo=
nse<br>
&gt; headers for each page and frame would be needed.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; (I&#39;m definitely not an expert on these topics, but I can spot some=
 of<br>
&gt; the common flaws if they are staring me in the face.)<br>
