i am confused about how cookies work in general.
Suppose i have
Cookie A for www.mysite.com (let's call it Path A)
Cookie B for www.mysite.com/dir1 (Path B)
Cookie C for www.mysite.com/dir1/dir2 (Path C)
Now if I visit root path, only Cookie A is sent to server and used? If i request files in Path B, Cookie A and B are both sent to server, but only B is used? If i tey to access files in Path C, all 3 cookies are sent, only C is used?
If it indeed works that way, what happens to the unused cookies?
Could the situation where multiple cookies with the same name exist for ONE particular webpage exist? Thanks
