Summary
Cookie is a class that is used to give auto-generated Cookie
variables their own distinct namespace, so as not to conflict with
other auto-generated variables, such as CGI data.  The Cookie class gets
its data from the $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS hash.

Example
$cookie = new Cookie;

if (! empty ($cookie->session_id)) {
	// do something with the cookie
} else {
	// set the cookie
	$cookie->set ("session_id", "value", 1800, "/", ".site.com", 0);
}
