This question is really about HTTP, not Python, so you'd have better
luck asking elsewhere.  The most likely possibility is that the domain
doesn't match.  For example, the cookie is set for the domain
www.foo.com, and the other webpage is linking to foo.com.  Another
possibility is that the cookie is expiring because the browser session
was terminated, not because of anything to do with the other webpage.
Or it could simply be a bug or unusual setting in whatever browser
you're using to test it.
