Is there a way to view cookies in Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer

6

In Firefox, if you have the Web Developer plugin installed you can view the cookies a particular site has setup in the browser.

Is there a way/plugin to do that in another of the other browsers?

It's a shame your question is so broad instead of just the one browser. Most answers are going to be one or the other. – random – 2009-09-25T00:50:15.880

Well think of it this way, if people post a bunch of different answers for each browser then some smart person can compile them all and I'll mark that one as correct – Paul Sheldrake – 2009-09-25T19:06:12.083

In Opera it is built-in, and you have two choices. The first is to use the super-useful site preferences dialog (found in the context menu):

alt text

The second is to use the cookie manager (Tools > Advanced > Cookies...), which lists every site and every cookie; you can quick search through it easily too.

And with either method, every cookie value is editable, so you can easily hack your cookies:

alt text

I also setup a custom mouse gesture where I draw a C on a page and I trigger a javacript function to show me the cookies in a dialog - this javascript should be usable on any browser:

javascript:alert('Cookies stored by this host or domain:\n\n' + document.cookie.replace(/; /g,'\n'));
