I'm sorry if I'm unclear. But I don't understand what the problem is 
with my question. So let me ask again.

Before I could get the value in a cookie, any cookie, from a browser 
visiting a rails app using cgi. I used it in Rails in order to get a 
unique string into the model. I can't use cookies[:cookie_name] for 
that. As I understand it I can't do that with Rails 2.3.x ( or 3?). 
That's what I want to do.
