Making the following changes in ad-utilities.tcl.preload permits lynx users to login. Modify ad_set_cookie to add quotes around the value:
set cookie "$name="$value""
And then modify ad_get_cookie to look like this:
if { $include_set_cookies == "t" } {
set headers [ns_conn outputheaders]
for { set i 0 } { $i < [ns_set size $headers] } { incr i } {
if { ![string compare [string tolower [ns_set key $headers $i]] "set-cookie"] &&
[regexp "^$name="([^"]+)"" [ns_set value $headers $i] "" "value"] } {
return $value
}
}
}
set headers [ns_conn headers]
set cookie [ns_set iget $headers Cookie]
if { [regexp "$name="([^"]+)"" $cookie match value] } {
return $value
}
if { [regexp "$name=([^;]+)" $cookie match value] } {
return $value
}
If you dont need to be backward compatible with older cookies set previous to the patch... then you can omit the last if statement.
