er numbers

except 4k of course which is in bytes

4k = 4 x 1024 = 4128 bytes.

thought this might be a clue


300 max number of cookies cached in the browser cookie folder

20 max number of cookies from one server (domain name) cached in the cookie folder as a part of the max total of 300

4Kbytes = maximum size of any one cookie allowed in the 20 per server as part of the 300 in total!
