I've been trying to capture https traffic in firefox using firebug during an website login and my browser sends some Google Analytic Cookies (such as __utma, __utmb) without receiving any of them first.
My goal is to implement some of the headers in java so I need also the cookies. I can see most of them but none of those GA cookies.
So my question is: how can I fetch those cookies ?
All cookies set for the current page are listed within Firebug's Cookies panel, also the Google Analytics ones.
The Google Analytics cookies are set via JavaScript within the ga.js file. For the Firebug website for example they look like this:
So you can set them in your Java program like any other cookie.
