Cookies
Cookies use request object to get values through in cookie file. It uses request.getCookies()
method to get cookie and return in cookie[] array.
Server variable
Server variable give server information or client information. Suppose we need to get remote client IP
address, browser, operating system, Context path, Host name any thing related to server can be get
using request object in JSP.
Server variable example in JSP

sessionSetRetrieve.jsp
<%@ page language="java" import="java.util.*"%>
<%
String sessionSet=request.getParameter("sessionVariable");
session.setAttribute("MySession",sessionSet);
/// String getSessionValue= (String)session.getAttribute("sessionSet");

%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Cookie Create Example</title>
</head>
<body>
Session : <%=(String)session.getAttribute("MySession")%>
</body>
</html>
session.setAttribute("MySession",sessionSet) this is use to set new session variable. If we need
to retrieve session variable, have to use session.getAttribute. In this we have to get it by session
variable name here we are using MySession is session variable as key.
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(2700);
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(2700), this use to set maximum session time. 2700 is time in
number. In this period, if user don’t do anything session get expired automatically.
Remove JSP Session Variables or Expire JSP Session
When session is no long needed, should be removed forcefully by user. This can be done by
calling session method of invalidate method
session.invalidate();
session.invalidate();
This method expires session for current user, who request for log out.
New session can be find by isNew() method of session, when first time session is created, that is
new session.
session.isNew();

for (int i=0; i<cookies.length; i++) {
out.println(cookies[i].getName()+" : "+cookies[i].getValue()+"<br/>");
}
%>
</body>
</html>
Cookie cookie = new Cookie ("cookieSet",cookieSet);
We are creating new object of cookie class.
Here new Cookie(“Key”, “value”);
Then we are adding in cookie of response object.
response.addCookie(cookie); This is adding in cookie object new data.
Expire JSP cookie
Cookie cookie = new Cookie ("cookieSet",cookieSet);
cookie setMaxAge(0);
This will expire cookie.,with 0 second. We can set cookie age who long is reside for user.
Retrieve cookie from JSP
Cookie is in array object, we need to get in request.getCookies() of array.
Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();
for (int i=0; i<cookies.length; i++) {
out.println(cookies[i].getName()+" : "+cookies[i].getValue()+"<br/>");
