Hello,

I'm trying to develop a library that will allow developers to save XML data to the \
client's hard drive for use later in an off line session.

I'm trying to use cookies as the storage mechanism. However, when I try to use \
document.cookie, Konqueror always returns back an empty string and never sets the \
cookie.

Please see below for a recreation. In IE and Netscape (both 4.x and 6.x), you can set \
a cookie, exit the browser and then come back. When you do, the cookie is still \
there. Konqueror does not allow this.

Thanks for your attention.
