Browser Id Manager - Change
Form options available are:
- Title
- the browser id manager title.
- Browser id name
- the cookie or forms variable name
used for this browser id manager instance. This will be the
name looked up in the namespaces specified by "Look for browser
id name in" (below).
- Look for Browser Id In
- choose any of
Forms and Query Strings,
URLs, or Cookies. The browser id name/value will be looked
for within these places.
- Automatically Encode Zope-Generated URLs With A Browser Id
- if
this is selected, URLs generated by Zope (such as URLs which come
as a result of calling an object's
absolute_url method) will be
encoded with a browser name and browser id as the first two
elements of the URL path.
- Cookie path
- this is the
path element which should be sent
in the session token cookie. For more information, see the
Netscape Cookie specification at
http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html.
- Cookie domain
- this is the "domain" element which should be
sent in the browser id cookie. For more information, see
the Netscape Cookie specification at
http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html.
Leaving this form element blank results in no domain element
in the cookie. If you change the cookie domain here, the
value you enter must have at least two dots (as per the cookie
spec).
- Cookie lifetime in days
- browser id cookies sent to browsers
will last this many days on a remote system before expiring if
this value is set. If this value is 0, cookies will persist
on client browsers for only as long as the browser is open.
- Only send cookie over https
- if this flag is set, only send
cookies to remote browsers if they're communicating with us
over https. The browser id cookie sent under this
circumstance will also have the
secure flag set in it, which
the remote browser should interpret as a request to refrain
from sending the cookie back to the server over an insecure
(non-https) connection. NOTE: In the case you wish to share
browser id cookies between https and non-https connections
from the same browser, do not set this flag.
After reviewing and changing these options, click the "Change"
button to change the browser id manager.
