secure and httponly cookies

[Krishna Kumar K K]

I am able to modify the set-cookie header from the server to flag it secure. I am trying to do the same in the request header as well.

Flags are sent by the server in Set-Cookie response headers. Cookies are sent by the client (or not) in Cookie request headers.

What behaviour do you want that you are not seeing?
