It is very easy to send cookies to browser. These cookies are sent along with HTTP Header before to Content-type field. Assuming you want to set UserID and Password as cookies. Setting the cookies is done as follows −
#!/usr/bin/python print "Set-Cookie:UserID = XYZ;\r
" print "Set-Cookie:Password = XYZ123;\r
" print "Set-Cookie:Expires = Tuesday, 31-Dec-2007 23:12:40 GMT;\r
" print "Set-Cookie:Domain = www.tutorialspoint.com;\r
" print "Set-Cookie:Path = /perl;
" print "Content-type:text/html\r
\r
