When POSTing a form with URLRequest, how to include cookies from browser session?

问题

(With reference to this answer:)

When I POST with a URLRequest, does it automatically include cookies from the browser session in which Flash is hosted? If not, how can I make it include them, or if necessary retrieve them and include them myself?

回答1:

Provided the cookie domains (of the page hosting the Flash control and the URL to which you're posting) match, then yes, the browser cookies get sent with the request by default. As a quick example (working version here), I've thrown together a simple ColdFusion page hosting a SWF containing the following code:

<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[

        private function btn_click():void
        {
            var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://test.enunciato.org/test.cfm");
            req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

            var postData:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
            postData.userName = "Joe";
            postData.userCoolness = "very-cool";

            req.data = postData;
            navigateToURL(req);
        }

    ]]>
</mx:Script>

<mx:Button click="btn_click()" label="Submit" />

... and in that page, I set a cookie, called "USERID", with a value of "12345". After clicking Submit, and navigating to another CFM, my server logs reveal the cookie passed through in the request:

POST /test.cfm HTTP/1.1 Mozilla/5.0
ASPSESSIONIDAASRDSRT=INDFAPMDINJLOOAHDELDNKBL;
JSESSIONID=60302395a68e3d3681c2;
USERID=12345
test.enunciato.org 200

If you test it out yourself, you'll see the postData in there as well.

Make sense?

I'm assuming you just wan't to include something like a session id for authentication purposes server-side.

To get the browser cookie from AS (needs javascript enabled, shouldn't be a problem for most users)

public var cookieStr:String;
public var cookieHeader:URLRequestHeader;
ExternalInterface.call('eval','window.cookieStr = function () {return  document.cookie};')
cookieStr = ExternalInterface.call('cookieStr'); 
cookieHeader = new URLRequestHeader("Cookie",cookieStr);

Then, when using your URLRequest object:

var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(...blah blah, url here, etc etc);
urlRequest.requestHeaders.push(cookieHeader);

Take note that Firefox does not send the cookies of the session along with a URLRequest, you will need a solution similar to the one above to overcome this problem.

回答3:

Not sure about flash. But couldn't you serialize the cookie and put it into the URL?

Maybe you would want to encrypt the data or transmit it in plain text but it might look like:

url:

www.example.com?newurl&cookiesession=true&cookieusername=bob

etc

(or I am missing something?)
