How does the expire date work setting it server side with asp.
I know with javascript setting it client side it will be set to the clients
local time, and therefore expire when the clients local time reaches the set
expire-time.
But if it is an expire time set on my server in California, and the cookie
is put on a computer that is running on London Time, and the expire time is
set at the server as 20 minutes from now, the London computer will think
that the cookie has expired 7 hours and 40 minutes ago, right?
How does this actually work? Is it proper to just set my expire time as:
I want to expire a cookie collection in my asp page and I gave it like this;
Response.Cookies("whereq").Expires = Now()
and this "whereq" collection has 50 keys. The problem is my cookie didn't expire from the above code. I hope there should be a way to do so without writing 50 expire lines.
I would like to know how can I remove expires date from asp I am not this can be done in access or asp script. There are a field i n access datbase say p_expdate which I delete and replace p_date which display the current post date
Which specific file in asp should I modify I had look into the file like register.asp and search for p_expdate. I had rename to p_date. Do you think the setting on my datbase or value I need to set.
none works. I've seen what bothers IIS is the day name when assigning the expiry date: "7 février 2004 11:57:57" is ok while "samedi 7 février 2004 11:57:57" produces an error "Invalid type".
Ok, I could switch to VB Script (which I think I'll do because of the ease of doing it in that language). But I'd like to know if there are well-known tricks on using IIS/ASP and cookies expiry date in JavaScript. It seems IIS object model is unable to recognize (or handle) JavaScript dates...
Might sound a stupid question but I'd like my script to be as platform independent as possible. Why? I'm running a French version of Windows 2000/IIS5. I might have to host my web on an English version. Or whatsoever. I wouldn't like to triturate the date string for it depends on the current locale. If JavaScript cannot be used without modifying the string I'll switch to VB script.
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?
Some of our web site users are experiencing a strange behavior of IE 6 (Sp1 or not). It looks like their ASP Session Cookie expire before time.
Here are some details. The user connects to our web site and we keep his ID in the Session object. At the beginning of every page, we check the presence of this ID and if it is missing, we redirect the user to the connection page.
Somewhere in the site, we create a temporary cookie. At some point, this new cookie is deleted with the following ASP code :
When the user clics on an hyperlink, he is redirected to the connection page because his ASP cookie is no more (I have verified that in our IIS log : there is no request logged after the execution of the above code).
Any ideas ? Could this be an Internet Explorer bug ?
understand that when one closes the browser, the session gets killed in ASP, i encountered a scenario, where even after the browser was closed, the session was active, let me explain, i have written a code to check if the session variable contains the loginname then i am allowing access to a certain asp page to the user.
the code worked. thereafter i closed the browser, opened the browser again and accessed the same url, surprisingly it allowed access to the page and did not ask me for the login name, clearing the cache also did not help.
Further, I need to update some table as well when the user closes his browser window (an update query to set the flag to 0 for tracking user status). How can I do this. A sample code will be highly appreciated.!
Lastly, when the user clicks the logoff button, he successfully logout , but he can come back with the back button on the browser. Is there a way to prevent this,that is, once the user logout and tries to come back, he SHOULD NOT be allowed to do so rather he should be redirected to a page where he can login again.
Did anyone know how to set the page are expire after logout? or something that had been sent using form. user can not go back t oview it again by clicking at the back button. Like hotmail.com
when user log out and hit the back button, the page display that the page are expire.
I've searched the net for ways to expire a page immediately, so when the user hit 'Back', they receive the "Page Has Expired" error page and I've seen a number of posts on how to do it - with the code below:
However, when I try using this code, nothing happens, when I click 'Back', it simply takes me back to the previous page. The "Expired Page" error page should display, correct?
Whenever password is expired & force user to change NT password for the web server, it seems to be assumption that asp application gives "interanal server error". Is it true that forcing user to change password will generate "internal server" error? BTW..this is caused in our intranet site and it is NT authenticated site.
What causes asp pages to "expire" - for example, on some PCs (not all, not all the time), when you hit the back button you get a "page expired" message.
I have a form that users fill and submit to a server side page. when a user uses the back button to go back to the form, I want the form page to expire. Pls how can i implement this.
After moving my application from W2K / IIS5 to W2K3 / II6 the application works pefrectly BUT the user session expire prematurely (after about 2 mins) rendering the application unusable.
if user clicked the Sign Out button, the session abandon and the login page displays. If the user clicks the browser Back button, it won't show the previous page. It shows only the login page. How does is work?
i have 2 application variables called totalAdminLoggedIn and totalUserLoggedIn
when ever an admin login, I increment the totalAdminLoggedIn value by one and when a normal user logg in, the totalUserLoggedIn value will be incremented by one.
how can i change the values when the session expire ? i can reduce the value manually when they logoff like:
if session("userCategory")="admin" then Application("totalAdminLoggedIn")=Application("totalAdminLoggedIN")-1 elseif session("userCategory")="user" then Application("totalUserLoggedIn")=Application("totalUserLoggedIn")-1 end if session.contents.remove "userCategory"
but what if the session expires automatically or if they close the window suddenly?
I was wondering if anyone knows how to get the current time of the user's timezone in an asp page. Currently I am trying to do some frequency capping in an advertising system i am working on and i want a cookie to expire at the end of the day, in Pacific Standard time.
What is happening now is the cookie is expiring whenever the day ends on the users computer, but i want it to expire when the day ends in our time zone. Any ideas on hwo to do this?? Is there a function i can call to get the users current time based on their timezone?
I've created an admin side for my ASP site and I use session vars to provide page security.
Just as a bit of advice, I want to know if I should expire each admin page so that others can't bring them up. I know the session var check will bounce them back to the login page, but I'd rather they didn't even see this page if they aren't authorised.
I want to delete all the cookies which are created for the application.If i know the names of a cookies i can delete the cookies or i can set the expire properties.
I am developing a simple booking system where I had a booking date. The problem is I want to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced for certain room.
I have tried to use DateDiff but it seems doesn't work. Actually i just 1 to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced from the current date. I am wondering whether there is anything goes wrong in my datediff function. Code:
i'm new here and i'd like to ask if there's someone who knows how to compare date() function and date from database with date/time type inside select statement so i don't have to do if..then..else
In my page i have two combobox. one for year and one for week numbers.Now my prob is
1.when i select a year from combo box 1, second combox box will display the number of weeks in that year.eg if i select 2005 it display me list from 1 to 53 as there are 53 weeks in 2005.
2.when i select a weeknumber from combobox 2 and press submit button it ll display start date and end date of entered week.
I am trying to compare two dates. My problem is no matter what the value of mydate, it is still fall in the first IF statement condition (even if mydate is 10/10/2004). Any advise for this matter?
mydate = "6/6/"&year(date) IF date() <= mydate THEN response.write "first half of the year" ELSE response.write "second half of the year" END IF
