(Yes, I know that password should be saved as a hash i...

I am using the jQuery UI tabs interface and I want to set a cookie (using the jquery.cookie.js script they recommend, from stilbuero.de/jquery/cookie/) to remember which tab was last selected when the page is refreshed.

I have been investigating this for some time, but I haven't found anything to satisfy my curiosity. Is it possible, as a user, to be the victim of a CSRF attack if cookies are disabled. Obviously CSRF depends on the users browser to send the user's credentials with the forged request to the legitimate server. Besides IP addresses, bro...
I set the cookies regularly in a callback page in my Twitter application. Everything works fine. Now, using jQuery, I submit a form, and the callback function activates a PHP script. That script only needs to set one cookie to the serialized values of $_POST; and the values run fine (both serialized and normal, I echoed them out to debu...
Is there any way to tell if a cookie is set for .domain.com rather than www.domain.com? A solution in either client-side JS or server-side PHP would be OK. What I would like to do is delete any cookies set for .domain.com, because I have recently set up static.domain.com for static content, and I don't want cookies being sent to the sta...

My reason for asking is, is that although most users have cookies on, I want to see if there's a way for a login system to work for th...
I have example.com and support.example.com . If a user is logged in on the main site, I'd like to have the session be accessible from the support site. Setting the SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN to '.example.com' isn't what I want because I have many, many other subdomains with django apps that I would like to NOT have access to the session. C...
