If you deal with cookies a lot (no, not the type you eat) then you know it can be a hassle to edit them and see the result inside of the browser. That is where the Add N Edit Cookies extension comes into the picture. This extension makes it really easy to edit your browser cookies.
Now I realize that not everybody knows that much about cookies. Here are a few FAQs answered by the developers of the extension:
Q: Why would I need this?
A: If you are a web developer and work with cookies a lot.Q: What’s difference from native Cookie Manage?
A: The main difference is that this extension edits and adds cookies not just displays them. it also has a handy filter feature, you can filter for a specific host in the cookies list and the search result will be saved even if you close the browser. See Screenshots.Q. How can I add a cookie?
A. Select a cookie and click Add Button. Fill out all the fields. remember that characters ‘;’ and ‘=’ are used as separators in storing cookies, so do not use them for cookie names or values.Q. How do I edit cookies?
A. Select a cookie and click Edit button. You can edit the cookie value and expiration date.

I know you must get this a lot, but I’m stressing it. Please fix Add N Edit Cookies for firefox 2.0 It was very useful until I updated. Now I no longer am able to use it. Please, javascript injections are too vague.
