Why does Cookie method fail???

[David Lees]

I am confused even more.  I thought the domain was an essential part of
the cookie, but I don't see it in the examples in the reference.

Also, how do I send do the header?

Here is the cgi-bin code I am playing with.

#!/usr/local/bin/python
import cgi, os, sys, Cookie

def memberform():

    list={}

    print "Content-type: text/html"
    print

    form1 = cgi.FieldStorage()

    first=form1["first"].value
    last=form1["last"].value
    email=form1["email"].value
    fan=form1["fan"].value

    list["first"]=first
    list["last"]=last
    list["email"]=email
    list["fan"]=fan

    print "<H1> Cookie Testing!</H1>"
    #c = Cookie.Cookie()
    #c.load(os.environ["HTTP_COOKIE"])

    print '<P>The name is '+first+'</P>'

    print '<P>Python Version = '+sys.version+'</P>'


if __name__ == "__main__":
    memberform()
