Cookie issue(cant fix it with anyhting)

[Benjamin Schollnick]

Nikos,

Hello i having the following code to try and retrieve the visitor's
>> saved cookie form the browser.
>> 
>> [CODE]
>> # initialize cookie and retrieve cookie from clients browser try:
>>     cookie = cookies.SimpleCookie( os.environ['HTTP_COOKIE'] )
>>     cookieID = cookie['name'].value
>> except:
>>     cookieID = 'visitor'

As it has been said before, change the except to be an explicit error check.  
The all purpose except is hiding an error condition from you.

Take a look at this:
