The cookies collection enables you set or clear cookies in the HTTP response.
Cookies are small amounts of information that are sent around with each HTTP request to the server. A cookie allows you to keep some state information about the user that is re-transmitted each time the user accesses the website. Note that cookies are sent in clear-text and should not be used to store password or any other sensitive data.
Properties| Count | Returns the number of cookies sent this this request. |
| Item(name or index) | Returns the cookie with the given name or index. |
| Key(index) | Returns the name of the cookie at the given index. |
| Add(name) | Adds a new cookie with the given name. |
The cookie object represents a single cookie in the HTTP response. A single cookie can include one or more values, as long as the total length does not exceed 250 characters.
