Description Geoffrey Hausheer 2001-01-03 23:00:00 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package: konqueror
Version: 1.9.8
Severity: Wishlist

I'd like tp be able to modify cookies from within the cookie-manager.
Specifically I'd like the ability to change the expire date.  Some sites set login cookies to be good for only a few hours and I want those to be persistent instead.  I can accomplish this by logging out (the only way I seem to be able to force my cookies to be written to disk and clear the internal cache) change it through a console text-editor then log back into kde and continue on my merry way.  I mean the box is right there if only I could modify its value...

You don't have to logout. Typing "kcookiejar --shutdown" writes the cookies 
to disk and shuts down the cookiejar. You can then edit them and restart the 
cookiejar with "kcookiejar" or "kdeinit_wrapper kcookiejar".

I believe being able to edit would still be a nice feature. My purpose would be for 
testing web software you are developing yourself, would be nice to change values 
on the fly.

This feature has already been implemented a long time ago...
