The Cookie module is to help with server-side cookies. Docs and examples 
seem a bit thin but try these:
http://pleac.sourceforge.net/pleac_python/cgiprogramming.html
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/325484
http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~lab2q/lesson_7/

Or google "python cgi cookie" ...
