Problem setting multi-value cookie

Rails
1

I’m trying to set a multi-value cookie but for some reason it’s not
working. Any help would be appreciated.

cookies[:user] = { :value => {:email=>params[:login][:email],
:passwd=>params[:login][:passwd]}, :expires => 30.days.from_now, :path
=> “/login”}

You really should be setting that in the session. It’s a particularly
bad idea to be storing a cleartext password in a cookie.

Well, true, but that isn’t the point, the password will be md5 hashed.
The point is that it’s not accepting an array as the value and I need it
to be a cookie. Any ideas?

I would expect that you have to serialize the data. In Ruby that is
done using the Marshal class.
