What is and how to use a Session Cookie

edited Oct 16, 2013 8:29PM in Oracle Application Express (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered
Hello,
We are on Apex 4.2.

It is not clear to me when documentation discusses a "Session Cookie", what such cookie exactly is.
Is this a server side cookie? What is stored in a session cookie?

I am creating a custom authetnication scheme and need to know the very details about how sessions work and how information can be set and retrieved from "Session Cookies".

The OWA_COOKIE.SEND procedure returns a HTTP header string that the browser can interprete to store values in a cookie.
Where in the application can I call OWA_COOKIE.SEND (or GET for that matter)? I am assuming that it can't be just in any region?

Howdy, Stranger!
