Can you wildcard cookie name with HTTP::cookie?

Can the cookie name in HTTP::cookie be wildcarded, like so?   when HTTP_REQUEST {   Check for SSO Cookie if { ( ! [HTTP::cookie exists "*.test"] ) } { reject } }   Thanks, Eric ...

Hi Eric,

you can't use wildcards in combination with the 

[HTTP::cookie exists]
command. But you may use either one of these coding techniques...

foreach cookie_name [HTTP::cookie names] {
    if { $cookie_name contains ".test" } then {
        reject
        break
    }
}

... or even using the 

[cookie names]
list as a whole...

if { [HTTP::cookie names] contains ".test" } then {
    reject
}

Cheers, Kai
