Is it Firefox or Zend Debugger? Cookie Standards

on Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

I’m frequently using Zend Debugger and recenlty it started not working with firefox so I decided to investigate. It still works with IE7 and Opera so it was weird to see Firefox being broken with the recent update (2.0.0.12).

When Zend Debugger starts, it sets a cookie on the browser, so when the request passes through the Debugger, it’s caught. Simple enough.

See the cookie that is set by Zend Debugger:
Set-Cookie: ZDEDebuggerPresent=php,phtml,php3; path=/ ZendDebuggerCookie=192.168.33.87%2C127.0.0.1%3A10000%3A0||084|77742D65|0; path=/ SESSdd12cedd715988d11c29f14605e8aa57=rfem27em2jsn3l9ipusujaava2; path=/; domain=.127.0.0.1
Nothing looks weird to me…
But when firefox does a second request it returns only the cookies below:

Cookie: ZDEDebuggerPresent=php,phtml,php3; SESSdd12cedd715988d11c29f14605e8aa57=rfem27em2jsn3l9ipusujaava2

What happened to ZendDebuggerCookie? The little firefox ate it?
Plain weird.
