221537 - Cookie Manager Should Recognize Wildcards in Domains

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 69758

(Core :: Networking: Cookies, enhancement)

Description

[David E. Ross]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20030925

The Cookie Manager should recognize the * wildcard character in domain names. 
This would facilitate whitelisting or blacklisting related domains.  A method
for editing the Cookie Sites is needed to make this enhancement useful.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




This is similar to Firebird bug #217115.  However, this is for Mozilla, not
Firebird.  

See also bug #221534 for Password Manager and bug #221535 for Image Manager.

See bug 217115, though that's for firebird.

Comment 2

[Gilles Durys]

There's also bug 69758

Reference comment #2

Bug #69758 does not include the capability to edit entries in the Image Manager
list.  

Comment 4

[Mike Connor [:mconnor]]

there is now support for directly editing the cookie/image sites in the
appropriate manager.  Therefore this is a dupe.
