wrote script to read session info from cookie or create new if none...

[spewn]

this script originally was working, but i don't know why it stopped...

is this correct syntax?

***
use CGI::Session;
my $cgi = new CGI;
my $sid = $cgi->cookie("CGISESSID") || undef;
my $session = new CGI::Session(undef, $sid, {Directory=>'/tmp'});
my $cookie = $cgi->cookie(CGISESSID => $session->id );
***

i don't understand where on the users computer the cookie if placed...

what i want it to do is create a new user session if the cookie isn't there, or use the existing if cookie is there.

any help/suggestions?
