MvCall & Cookies
hmmm... MvCall carries on a very limited HTTP request. As far as I can
tell, the MvCALL itself carries on the original http request/response
conversation, and your first line in the MvCall loop happens *after*
the http conversation, and on the first line of the actual document
requested. So if MvCALL does not natively support the cookie request/
response conversation, then the "browser" (ie: Miva CGI) cannot accept
the cookies being sent by the server.
Hence the error message: Your browser doesn't support cookies.
Anyone care to object? ;)
