WSRP: Cookies and setting preferredTitle

Question

When changing the preferred Title is seems there must be a cookie set. initCookie is set to none for the example portlet (Form Submission Portlet). Am I just calling in wrong or could this be a bug with the oracle implementation. If I first post the values (name and age) to the form that sets the cookie JSESSION, if this is not done prior to that the render fails with invalid handle. Even though it is the handle returned by the performBlocking. Therefore it seems the handle is only good if the cookie is set.
Thanks
Mike

What’s the reason with adding the period at the start of
mysite.com?
The
documentation
on cfcookie says so. I suppose it has to do with how Coldfusion
extracts the domain name from subdomains like warehouse.mysite.com,
accounts.mysite.com, personnel.mysite.com, and so on.
Here's something else you might wish to know. I saved the
following version of your code as
firefoxCookieTest.cfm.
<cfif isDefined("COOKIE.cookieIsLive")>
<cfoutput>COOKIE.cookieIsLive=#COOKIE.cookieIsLive#</cfoutput>
<cfelse>
COOKIE.cookieIsLive=NOT DEFINED
</cfif>
<cfcookie value="#now()#" name="cookieIsLive">
Open the page for the first time in Firefox 3.0.5, and you
will get:
COOKIE.cookieIsLive=NOT DEFINED
Refresh the page, and you will get something like:
COOKIE.cookieIsLive={ts '2008-12-27 04:59:53'}
Then close and re-open Firefox. When you run the page, you
will get:
COOKIE.cookieIsLive=NOT DEFINED as before.
With the page still open, follow the menu
Tools => Options => Privacy(tab) => Show
Cookies(button). Locate the domain from the list of sites.
Click on the + symbol to expand. You will see that the cookie file
is still there, even though Coldfusion doesn't currently have the
cookie in memory.
