Details

Multiple searches have thrown up no duplicate so I'm raising this.

When a website tries to set a cookie, you are given the option to accept/reject
with all the other options.
What you are not given is the option to see what the content of the cookie is
before you make your decision.

IE provides this ability and it is very useful, for example a site tries to set
several cookies but one is a session id that is required for the site to work.
The only way to get the site to work is to accept all of them and then remove
the redundant ones afterwood. Having an extra option in the cookie action prompt
to view the content would be far more useful than the current system.
