handling a comma inside a cookie value using .net's (C#) System.Net.Cookie

Question

I\'m creating a client to visit a website and log in + do some tasks automatically, however they recently updated their cookies to (for whatever reason...) contain a comma i

Answer 1

To handle the cookie, since a cookie is essentially a string, you may like to try URL Encoding the cookie value before setting it, and then Decoding it when you pull out the value.

i.e.:

Response.Cookies["Value1"] = Server.UrlEncode(sCookieValue);

and similarly:

string sCookieValue = Server.UrlDecode(Request.Cookies["Value1"]);
