[development] Weird session behavior on submit block form

[Robert Douglass]

No, the cookies aren't stored in the database. But neither are they 
stored on the filesystem of the server (in Drupal or otherwise).

In case you are wondering about this directive in php.ini:

; The path for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_path = /

I don't think that this is a path on the file directory of the server. I 
know that my apache doesn't have read or write access to /.

You can find all the information that gets stored on the server about a 
user's session in the sessions database table.

cheers,

Robert
