Difference between cache and cookie.

Answer Posted / deo ram yadav

cookies are small bits of files that store your session, and
other small data, its pretty much like a database in a
sense... while a cache is temporary storage for files used
by a program(typically a browser) to display items.... and
to get a quick access to pre-parsed files.....

your browser has to store the webpage, and all pictures,
video flash and those things on the cache so that it could
display it

while cookies, store only text based data about your
browsing stuff.. like passwords, number of pages visited,
session number, and so on.....
