How to tell if cookies are disabled

I was seeing the cookie expiration using HTTP Watch. Here is an example where I'm seeing the expiration in the request (a line from http watch):

 

 

name direction value path domain expires

 

 

ipsnfSentv.3|US|1||/abc.com Sat, 22-Sep-2007 00:00:01 GMT

 

 

As you say this may not actually be included in the request but may be shown by HTTP Watch, so I would need to check the actual header with tcpdump.

 

 

I was working on this as part of an iRule I'm developing to replace some server based programs that are currently in use. The web developers mentioned something related to doing calculations based on cookie expiration - so I was basically just checking to see if I could pull the expiration date. I will check with them on this since it looks like I may not be on the right track...

 

 

In any case thank you for clarifying.
