In this Site http://www.aquapac.de(sorry it german) i have a shop, if you add
(klick on "in den warenkorb") some things into the shopping cart, there will be 
only one product from the same line, if you add a second product from another 
line it will be create a new cookie. What can i do?

Seems mozilla adds spaces to the cookies and also leavtin cookie path default 
only points to one cookie.
to fix :
1. setPath("/") when creating a cookie.
2. Use .trim() liberally on cookie names and values. I think only names have 
space before/after them and values are fine.

Should be makred invalid as mozilla follows the RFC spec and doesnt break it.

oh and one more thing.
cookies sent from 127.0.0.1 are NOT the same as those sent from localhost. moz 
seems to differentiate IP's and hostnames when reading/sending cookies.
so if you go to http://127.0.0.1 and then http://localhost you end up with two 
different cookies. similarly going to http://mysite.com and http://10.10.10.1 
are two different sites for cookies according to moz.
