Hi,

This is Pankaj,I am trying to write a module which is capable to access  
header value and set header and reading cookie and setting cookie.  
if i refer apache module then found apr\_table\_get() and apr\_table\_set()  
APIs are available to get/set header/cookie values.  
I have tried to use ngx\_http\_get\_variable() API to get cookie value but  
not  
getting any value.  
Please help me on this and let me know is any other API which I can use  
for  
the same.

Thanks & Regards,  
Pankaj Chaudhary
