[ic] [read-cookie] question

[interchange-users@icdevgroup.org (Barry Treahy, Jr.)]

The [set-cookie] ITL supports numerous parameters which control the 
definition of the cookie, in particular, the path and domain.  I have 
already set the site to support cookies for the entire domain but I'm 
seeing cookies defined with various path's which I find odd.  My 
question is related to the [read-cookie], however.  Is it safe to 
presume that the read-cookie, since it really has no documented 
parameters other than the cookie name, will return any cookie that 
matches on the name, regardless of the original path?  

If so, then how do I know which cookie will consistently be returned and 
of not, which is what I would expect, then how to I clearly identify 
which cookie for which path?  Is this simply an undocumented parameter?
