Abstract: According to the approach described herein, Web page-specific cookie data is used when Web pages are requested from a Web server. When a Web page is requested and received (the parent Web page), Web page-specific cookie data is generated and stored in association with the parent Web page. The Web page-specific cookie data reflects the values, at the time the parent Web page was received, of the cookie data for the Internet domain associated with the parent Web page. When a request is later made for another Web page that the parent Web page refers to, i.e., a child Web page, the Web page-specific cookie data for the parent Web page is retrieved and included with the request for the child Web page, instead of the current cookie data for the Internet domain associated with the parent Web page from a common cookie jar.
