Hi, i’m trying to save a cookie with some especial characters like  
this ‘diasnd190823===??//\<\<asddas’

But rails escape this characters.

Anybody knows how can i do that?

I’ve tried this ways without success:

1:  
cookies[‘mycookie’] = {:value =\> ‘diasnd190823===??//\<\<asddas’}

2:  
mycookie = CGI:🍪:new(‘name’ =\> ‘mycookie’, ‘value’ =\>  
‘diasnd190823===??//\<\<asddas’)  
respose.headers[“cookie”] \<\< mycookie

Thanks,
