Hello Filip,

i think you are right, OpenSSO does create an invalid cookie.
I first read the following:

"This string is a sequence of characters excluding semi-colon, comma and
white space. If there is a need to place such data in the name or value,
some encoding method such as URL style %XX encoding is recommended,
though no encoding is defined or required."

on
http://209.85.135.104/search?q=cache:W6VJIqv-__MJ:wp.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html

but now i found the actual specification
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2109/rfc2109
and
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2068/rfc2068
which does not allow the following characters in the cookies value:

          tspecials      = "(" | ")" | "<" | ">" | "@"
                         | "," | ";" | ":" | "\" | <">
                         | "/" | "[" | "]" | "?" | "="
                         | "{" | "}" | SP | HT


Thanks,

Hendrik
