Cookie Array
Is there a way to store an array of information in a cookie? ie. a user can have a "x" long list of a variable stored in a cookie, so when they return to the site this information can be retrieved.

Save Array As Cookie
I've built myself a shopping cart which saves an array as a session variable and this works fine.
However I would like the content of cart not to be lost even if the user leaves the
website. Is there a way to save the array to a cookie or can this only be achieved by saving the cart to the database?
Session Cookie With Array
I need to set a session cookie with an array(100+) and ad values to the array every time the user choses to ad something (to the array while she/he is navigating the site) and write the content of the array on the page after each addition to the array! So, basically:
1- Set session cookie with array. 2- ad values to the array and write out the whole array after each addition automatically, otherwise just write "no choices" or smth. Can anyone show how to do this codes in ASP briefly?
Response.cookie In Session_onstart Event And IE 6.0 Cookie Acceptance
When I set a cookie in global.asa in the sub session_onstart, even if
I have "privacy" in IE 6.X set to "block all cookies" the cookie is
still set, and I can get it on other pages.
I can't find an article that addresses this as a specific issue. Why
does the browser get the cookie when it is set in the session_onstart
event even when I have "block all cookies" set?
Session Cookie Vs. Regular Cookie
I want to know what's the differences between session cookie and regular cookie.
In ASP, when we create cookie, we do the following to identify an user:
Response.Cookies("name") = value
Is this regular cookie? How about session cookie? and when to use which?
Rebuilding Of An Array From An Existing Array
I dump the entire recordset into an array:
If not rs.EOF Then
aEmp = rs.GetRows()
Contents of the array are in this order:
EmpID,EmpName,Indent,Sub_ID,Lft,Rgt,MgrID, LastName
This query sort on the basis of Lft and Rgt columns.
The name of the array is: aEmp.
My question here is how can I get only the LastName from the aEmp array into another array so that I can sort the names alphabetically and then display the employees in the alphabetical order.
Or is there is another way I could this by using the same array while keeping the lft and rgt sort of the query? If I sort based at the SQL query level, I can see the names sorted by the lft, rgt and lastname, but since the lastname is at the end of the sort list - it does not appear alphabetically.
Array Integers Vs Array Variables
In working with arrays, I have found that I am unable to dimension and array
with a variable that has an integer value but I can redimension one this
way. I haven't see any information that tells me if this is a requirement,
although it appears to be because I get an error if I try it.
Ex.
Dim b
b = 10
Dim a(b) ' this errors out but
Dim a() ' this
Redim a(b) ' works
Code:
Create A New Array From An Array
I want to create a new array called arrNames2 and copy contents of arrNames to arrNames2.
I then want to loop through my db and add more names (while going through the loop) to arrNames2. What is the best way to do this? Do I have to keep redim the array wehn I add more names?
How To Set Cookie To Nothing?
The problem is that the code for "change_school.asp" takes the user right to "portal.asp". I checked the code of "change_school.asp" and it does indeed set a cookie value for "school", but for some reason "default.asp" is still finding the old cookie stored and then redirecting...any ideas guys?
'code for change_school.asp...clears the cookie "school" and redirects to page (default.asp) where user can select a new school
<% Response.Cookies("school")= ""
Response.Redirect "default.asp" %>
'code for default.asp which allows user to select a new school, and if the cookie "school" has some value then they are redirected.
<%
If request.cookies("school") <> "" then
Response.Redirect "portal.asp"
end if
%>
Cookie And SQL?
On this website i am building it has password protection on certain pages. So i have a "login" portion on the right side of the page, that is shown on every page. When someone logs in is it possible to change that little section to just say Welcome so and so? Instead of having the username and password form with submit button?? Or is this something that requires some java to hide it?
Part II
When someone logs in i want them to recieve a cookie, in that cookie i want it to contain the person's name (wich i want the to be put next to the "welcome back on part I), email address, and up to four other numerical values. (some people will have greater access to sections of the site depending on who they are)
Is is possible to grab this information from the SQL database and put in the cookie? If so can anyone please show me, point me in right direction, ect?
Cookie Value
I'm using FrontPage Database results wizards to retrieve data from Access. I have a cookie containing a number I'd like to insert in a custom query. Whenever the page opens, I want the query to run using the value in the cookie. I haven't been able to figure out how to transfer the cookie value into something the FP webbot will accept in the query.

I’m a little worried, do you know how spiders work with regards to this sort of thing? My site gets some traffic due to it being spidered by the likes of google and I don’t want to loose that flow.
If I use this at the entry point of my site to redirect browsers with cookies turned off to a page telling them to turn them on will that stop the spiders?
Cookie Availability
If my user turns cookies off, both permanent and temporary cookies can't be used or only permanent cookies can't be saved on the user's machine?

A Cookie Disappears, But Not All Of Them
I have a problem with a Cookie in an ASP page. Without any apparent reason, one of the Cookies disappears, but the others are ok.
I'm at Page1, a link goes to Page2. Page2 redirects to Page3 and Page3 redirects to Page1. When I'm back to Page1, sometime, one of the cookies don't exist anymore... But the others are there! The disappeared Cookie isn't always the same, in the 18 Cookies that I have.
The environment is composed of 4 clustered servers. Page1 is SSL, but not Page2 and Page3.
I don't have more than 4KB (1.86KB to be more precise) of data and I don't have more that 20 Cookies on the same domain.
I added the following code:

I want to retrieve the value of a cookie to make a form a little more user friendly (our intranet is configured to set a cookie for User First Name, Last Name and Email when they log in)
Unfortunately I can't figure out how to retrieve the value of the cookie. I've been trying:

But it gives me an error - I used Checky to make sure the cookies are there and they do exist:

View Replies View RelatedHow To Remove Cookie?
How can I remove a cookie from the client in ASP? I'm not talking about setting the value to a blank string and I've tried this:

Cookie Testing
I need to revisit cookie testing. On the home page and every product page I
write a cookie. I do this because some users enter by direct links to
product pages.

I have a user that insists he has cookies enabled, yet he keeps getting
redirected to my error page which suggests he does not have cookies enabled.
What could cause this? Is the above too simple for all circumstances?
Is there more extensive code that I could setup on a hidden page where I can
send users to get read out on how they actually have their browsers setup?
i.e. Run a test on their browser and the results are emailed to me.
Creating A New Cookie
I have an asp page where i created cookies-for admin and for user. The aspx page reads these cookies. Everything seems to work fine but now i have to create a new cookie if cookie has expired or if cookie is null. Also, i am having problems with the expire because if the username belongs to the admin for example and then i want to change
the username that belongs to a normal user the cookie recognises the first (admin) cookie. How do i solve this? .....
Cookie Poisoning
I have created a page where i got sth like this:
if (request.cookies("example") <> ""
response.redirect("login.asp")
response.end
end if
(I will try to explain as easy i can), so in the login.asp using a .mdb i get the username and check with the password, and putting the username in the cookie in this case called example, but using some cookie poisoning i can be anybody logged in, even sb out of the table of users, i didn't use the session object, i wanted to use a cookie because i got curiosity and i didn't understand what is the difference, and actually i don't understand so much...anyways i got 2 questions, how i do sth for protect the cookie for cookie poisoning and what is the difference between the session and the cookie (from the little what i know is that the session is a predefined cookie that has some encrypting stuff and that so on and got some properties, methods right? and the cookie is just a information holder without any extra stuff as the session object has, am i right?)
Encrpyt A Cookie
I have created code to create a cookie about a user when their login and when they tick a remember me box.

My question is how do you encrpyt a cookie so it doesnt store the info in plain text?

Cookie Problems
I''m having a problem with cookies that is driving me insane :).
- If a user comes to http://domain.com and a cookie is set for them, then the user for whatever reason jumps to http://www.domain.com one of the 2 happens:
1) The cookie we set can not be read (expected), but then a new one can not be written ether (I looked at the server headers and although the cookie information is sent, IE ignores it).
2) The cookie from http://domain.com can be read, but you can not write to this cookie. Same here cookie is sent back from the server but IE ignores it.
Now, if its the other way around. If a user comes to http://www.domain.com, a cookie is set, then he/she jumps to http://domain.com:
The cookie can not be read (expected), but a new one can be written (as it should be).
So after driving my self insane, i whent out and tried it out in other servers to see if it was true. I tried 4 different sites which used cookies (for shopping carts). I did the same tests, (Go in via domain.com, add something to cart, then, jump to www.domain.com, cookie would not be overwritten. Then did the other way around, everything worked fine.)
Sample code: .....
Cookie Test?
I have always used this in ASP to test if the client is accepting cookies:
<%@language="VBScript"%>
<%
Session ("nc") = 1
If Len(Session("nc")) = 0 Then
'Cookies Off
Else
'Cookies On
End If
%>
But I only ever tested it in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 though not sure. Anyway with Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 Len(Session("nc")) <> 0 always whether cookies are on or off. Can anyone suggest a better cookie test that will work in most browsers?
Reading A Cookie Value?
am trying to create a login page for the first time, I have a login page, validate login page and if the password is correct it takes me to the first page.
I have customized this code someone else created,but what I have a problem with now is I need to log who submitted that data and that is why I am trying to read UserName cookie so I can later match that data.
This is the error I get which is telling me that it is reading the cookie since this is the UserName I am logging in with
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid column name 'boxhill'.
but I can't see what is wrong, and there is not much out there for this kind of error.
So I can login successfully but now i need to read and dispaly that cookie and then insert the value of the cookie but,but don't worry about that now, just trying to give you the full picture.
So this is the code for reading the cookie ...
Cookie.Path
I'm writing an ASP validation script that uses a cookie that is created by a user validation page and has a single value. This site will be used only under Internet Explorer 5 and more recent.
My problem is that the page called after the cookie creation can't read the cookie unless I set the Cookie.Path attribute to "". All the documentation that I found about it is very brief, don't explain how it really works and if there's any kind of "side effects". An even stranger fact is that some people of my team can read the cookie without setting the Cookie.Path attribute.
Can anyone tell me how the Cookie.Path really works or witch browser settings make it needed (or not)?
Posting The Value Of A Cookie
