Expose the attached HTML document on a webserver running on localhost.

(For your convenience, I've provided a simple python script to expose a
webserver on port 8000.  Just save tinyWebServer.py and weird_cookies.html in
the same directory and then run tinyWebServer.py.)

Open WebKit and browse to the URL at http://localhost:8000/weird_cookies.html

Click on "testCookies".  You'll get a message: "No Cookies!"  Click on
"addCookie".  You'll get a message: "cookie added".  Click on "testCookies"
again.  You'll get the old message: "No Cookies!" but at this point it should
say "Got Cookies!"

Now browse to the URL http://127.0.0.1:8000/weird_cookies.html

Click on "testCookies".  You'll get a message: "No Cookies!"  Click on
"addCookie".  You'll get a message: "cookie added".  Click on "testCookies"
again.  You'll get a message: "Got Cookies!"
