# NAME

HTTP::Cookies::Netscape - access to Netscape cookies files

# SYNOPSIS

     use LWP;
     use HTTP::Cookies::Netscape;
     $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Netscape->new(
       file => "c:/program files/netscape/users/ZombieCharity/cookies.txt",
     );
     my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
     $browser->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar );

# DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of `HTTP::Cookies` that reads (and optionally writes) Netscape/Mozilla cookie files.

See the documentation for the HTTP::Cookies manpage.

# CAVEATS

Please note that the Netscape/Mozilla cookie file format can't store all the information available in the Set-Cookie2 headers, so you will probably lose some information if you save in this format.

At time of writing, this module seems to work fine with Mozilla Phoenix/Firebird.
