Response.Cookies("userId").Expires = "?"
Can anyone explain the difference between Response.Expires & Session.Timeout
View Replies View RelatedIf I open any other website and open my application, Session get expires. If I open my application first and open any other website, then Session in my application is working properly.
View Replies View RelatedI am using the following 2 lines of script at the begining of every ASP page
on my site.
Response.Expires = -1
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = Now
Should I also use them in the ASP files that I am including using the
<!--#includes file = "file.asp"--> directive ?

i have admin panel and agent panel. when i open admin panel and log in it works fine. but when agent opens agent panel in different pc and login and acts something like open a page or so, both admin panel and agent panel expires session and asks for re-login. What would be possible reason for this?
platform:
OS: windows 2000 server, IIS 6.0

Will using the response.expire object alleviate the need for users to always clear their cache/refresh the browser when coming to a particular page?
View Replies View RelatedAt the moment, I have this in the footer section of my login protected pages:
<%Response.Expires=-1%>
But I notice this doesn't prevent me from being able to press 'Back' after I have logged out and view the same content - content I should not view if Ihave logged out! How do I force the page to expire then?
What exactly is this used for?

I am creating an access DB that has job listings and displays the DB online.
I am creating tables rows for 'BeginListing' and 'Endlisitng' etc that are stored as a Date

I use Response.Expires=0 in asp code. This was working fine in production for
some time on a windows 2000 server. In the last month is code is not working

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?
I am using the following to delete the contents of a cookie
Response.Cookies("maincookie").expires = DateAdd("d",-2,now)
Response.redirect "login.asp"
If i try to alert the value of the cookie in the same page, it shows
the old value. As well as when it is alerted from the login.asp it
shows the old value.
The problem is when i try to update the value of the cookie in the
login page, it does not update the new value.
Only if i close the browser and reopen, the new value gets updated and
even if the old value is originally present in the cookie.
I am specifying the domain and path when creating the cookie. the
expires property is set to date + 1 when creating.
What should be done to delete the contents of the cookie? Should i
specify the domain as well as path when changing the expires property?
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?
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

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?
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?
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?

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 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.
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.

the username that belongs to a normal user the cookie recognises the first (admin) cookie. How do i solve this? .....
