Do current browsers accept cookies from an ajax response?

Question

If I return a cookie with a response which is triggered by an ajax request, would the browser save the cookie?

Answer 1

yes, from: http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/

If the user agent supports HTTP State Management it should persist, discard and send cookies (as received in the Set-Cookie response header, and sent in the Cookie header) as applicable. [COOKIES]
