//  To save cookies to XML files (per domain) in a specific
//  directory, set the CookieDir property (the directory must
//  already exist and be writeable by the caller).  Also,
//  set the SaveCookies property:
http.CookieDir = "c:/cookieDir";
http.SaveCookies = true;

//  Any methods that do a GET, POST, etc. will save cookies
//  to the CookieDir:
string html;
html = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.paypal.com/");

//  After running this code, a "paypal_com.xml" file will appear
//  in c:/cookieDir.

//  It's content will look something like this:

//  
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
