==Overview==

I was setting up the Google Analytics tracking code in a way that it sets the cookie's host for a particular subdomain (www.example.com), and not for the whole domain (.example.com).
Once I set it up, and after cleaning the cookies and re-loading the page, I checked the "Resources -> Cookies" tab just to see the "This sites has no cookies" message.
I though I did something wrong so I re-checked the code, and refreshed the page again. Checked the Cookies tab once more... and nothing, totally empty.

I started to suspect that it was an issue on the GA tracking code, but then, I decided to check the cookies on the Chromium Preferences panel: 
"Preferences -> Under The Hood -> Content Settings ->  All Cookies and Site data"

There, I searched for the domain name and I found the cookies! 
The cookies were correctly.

==Steps to reproduce==

1) on your website, set the GA Tracking Code snippet in a way that it sets its cookie only for a certain subdomain.

    _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'www.example.com']);

2) Clean the cookies in your browser

3) Reload the page

4) Open the WebInspector and check the "Resources -> Cookies" tab. It may show up empty!

5) Check cookies on the "Preferences -> Under The Hood -> Content Settings ->  All Cookies and Site data". You may find the cookies there.
