(VBScript) Caching cookies in-memory.

Caching cookies in-memory. To automatically save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the CookieDir property equal to the keyword "memory". Also, set the SaveCookies property = 1. If the SendCookies property = 1, then any cached cookies are automatically re-sent with subsequent GETs and POSTs.

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http")

' To save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the
' CookieDir equal to "memory".  Also,
' set the SaveCookies property:
http.CookieDir = "memory"
http.SaveCookies = 1

' To cause cached cookies to be sent with 
' subsequent HTTP requests, set the SendCookies
' property = 1.
http.SendCookies = 1

' Any methods that do a GET, POST, etc. will save 
' cookies to the CookieDir (which in this case is an 
' in-memory cache.

' If another HTTP request is sent, the cookies should
' be added:

' Check the LastHeader property to see the MIME header
' of the last HTTP request sent.
' The "Cookie" header field should be present.
