Cookies and Netscape



Hello,

For Netscape, I have set some the preferences to warn me before accepting cookies. Netscape does
warn me as configured and I accept all of them. At the end of the browsing session, the "cookies" file only
contains some sites in it. There are many sites, I visited, which have set the cookies but are not in the
file.

What happened to these cookies? Are these cookies sent back to the server? Some sites use Javascript.
Does Javascript erase the cookies, once exit the site? (It should not, since revists to the same site did not
warn me any cookies).

Any information is appreciated.
