We are having trouble retrieving the cookie info when the page is using SSL;

What work arounds exist besides posting the info via URL?

Is your 'secure' domain different from your normal domain?

eg. secure.yoursite.com instead of www.yoursite.com

You can use the "domain" parameter on the cookie to recognise all "yoursite.com" domains.

There is also a "secure" parameter but I don't think that's useful in your case. You might want to check the "path" value as well.
