Summary

CookieSlice allows your browser to intercept incoming "Set-Cookie" headers and store those cookies in sessionStorage that is unique to a Browser Tab instance. What this enables you to do is have unique sessions for servers that use cookies to store the session ID. For instance, "ASP.NET_SessionId" is the name of the Microsoft .NET ASP cookie that stores the session ID. By letting CookieSlice intercept this cookie, you can have a unique session per tab. Specify which cookies to intercept or choose to intercept all incoming cookies. This does not intercept cookies set on the client side.
