hi!
i am printing a simple cookie, but instead of printing
um=name:blah&ac cess:admin&exp: 2312390.909
its printing
um="name:blah&a ccess:admin&exp :2312390.909"
why the quotes?
i am creating the cookie as follows:
data = "user:" + username + "&access:" + access + "&expiry:" + str(expTime)
cookie_digest = hmac.new(key, data).digest()
cookie = Cookie.SimpleCo okie()
cookie_data = data + "&digest:" + cookie_digest
cookie["um_cookie"] = cookie_data
cookie["um_cookie"]["path"] = "/~abrar1/hons/interface/admin/"
print cookie
thanks
cheers

Why not?
I don't see how they'd cause any harm.

they dont cause any harm, except for a an extra statement removing those
quotes when i read the cookie, parse it and authenticate the session.
the question is - is that normal cookie behaviour?
cookie["test"]="blah"
print cookie
prints test=blah and not test="blah"
so why the quotes when i do the same thing, but use a variable instead of a
string literal?

You've lost me, but on the basis of a very quick test, the Cookie
module preserves quotes across the parse->output cycle: import Cookie c = Cookie.SimpleCo okie() c.load('foo=bar ') print c
Set-Cookie: foo=bar; c.load('foo="ba r"') print c
Set-Cookie: foo="bar";
That seems sensible behaviour to me, since quotes around cookie values
are significant for Netscape cookies (ie. regular, vanilla, internet
cookies).
I can categorically state that using a variable name instead of a
string literal will make no difference whatsoever. I think you're
actually confused about Python syntax rather than the workings of the
Cookie module. Try reading the Python language tutorial at www.python.org.

i believe you. i didn't think it would make a difference. and i agree that
the Cookie module preserves quotes across the parse->output cycle
my question is import Cookie c = Cookie.SimpleCo okie() c["test"]= "blah" print c
Set-Cookie: test=blah; c["test"] = "blah" + "testing" print c
Set-Cookie: test=blahtestin g; str = "testing blah" c["test"] = str print c
Set-Cookie: test="testing blah";
why does the final print statement have the quotes. Note i haven't put
str='"testing blah"'. if i had done that i would understand the quotes
there.
I think you're actually confused about Python syntax rather than the workings of the Cookie module. Try reading the Python language tutorial at www.python.org.
yes i should probably read that :)
it doesn't though mention anything about the above behaviour

Does the following help?

[GCC 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright" , "credits" or "license" for more information. import Cookie c = Cookie.SimpleCo okie() c["test"] = "testingbla h" print c

It's no difference if you bind the string to a name or assign it directly,
it's the contents of the string: import Cookie c = Cookie.SimpleCo okie() c["test"] = "spaceless" print c
Set-Cookie: test=spaceless; c["test"] = "not spaceless" print c
Set-Cookie: test="not spaceless";
