Cookie Tracking is Misbehaving

I'm running 5.0.13a and trying to track cookies on a page that I am scraping.

The page sets two cookies but the session.getCookies returns an array with a length of 0. Trying to see where the problem lay I used the session.setCookie to create a cookie to clash with one of the set cookies by the page. The two did not touch.

It appears that the session cookies are not connected to the site's cookies.

Automation

It has become my default automation mechanism. I love to automate things.

That seems to have resolved the issue, thanks.
