Can you post the code that duplicates this behavior?
<script type="text/javascript">
var name = 'CookieName';
var strContent = 'CookieValue';
document.cookie = name + "=" + strContent + ";"
alert(document.cookie);
</script>
I do not see the behavior you descript in IE 6.0.2900.
I am guessing your Web server is probably writing cookies of it's own
when you visit your test page. Check the Web server configuration to
ensure it is not sending any cookies during requests. You can also check
the HTTP headers using something like Firefox's Live HTTP Headers
Extension to see if the server is sending cookies.
