Hello
This question pertains to the use of a cookie-capable WebClient derived class.
I'd like to use a ListBox to...
1) display each cookie individually as "key=value" (the For Each loop displays all of them as one string), and
2) be able to display all cookies, regardless of the domain from which they came ("www.google.com", here).
The problem with the code below, is that it returns all the cookies as a single value with key=PREF:
Is there a better way than regexing through the value above to extract individual cookies?
Thank you.

VB.NET:

Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim webClient As New CookieAwareWebClient
Const URL = "http://www.google.com"
Dim response As String
response = webClient.DownloadString(URL)
RichTextBox1.Text = response

Dim mycookiecollection As CookieCollection
mycookiecollection = webClient.cc.GetCookies(New Uri(URL))
Dim mycookie As Cookie
For Each mycookie In mycookiecollection
ListBox1.Items.Add(mycookie.Name & vbTab & mycookie.Value)
Next

End Sub
End Class
Public Class CookieAwareWebClient
Inherits WebClient
Public cc As New CookieContainer()
Private lastPage As String
Protected Overrides Function GetWebRequest(ByVal address As System.Uri) As System.Net.WebRequest
Dim R = MyBase.GetWebRequest(address)
If TypeOf R Is HttpWebRequest Then
With DirectCast(R, HttpWebRequest)
.CookieContainer = cc
If Not lastPage Is Nothing Then
.Referer = lastPage
End If
End With
End If
lastPage = address.ToString()
Return R
End Function
End Class

Thank you.
