| ▲ | anamexis 5 days ago | parent [-] | | That is true, but in that case they are part of the value itself, they're not doing anything special: > Per the grammar above, the cookie-value MAY be wrapped in DQUOTE characters. Note that in this case, the initial and trailing DQUOTE characters are not stripped. They are part of the cookie-value, and will be included in Cookie header fields sent to the server. | | |
| ▲ | kangalioo 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Why does the specification specifically mention them, then? | | |
| ▲ | anamexis 5 days ago | parent [-] | | To clarify that by the spec, double quotes are allowed in the cookie value, but only at the beginning and end. As for why that is, I have no idea. |
