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?

How do I track a referral from an affiliate site through a cookie. I would like the aff links to be formatted

I have a site that I'm trying to migrate to ASP.NET from ASP, and the
foremost stumbling block I'm hitting is session state between the ASP
and ASP.NET applications. In order to access this information, I'm
doing a HttpWebRequest from the ASP.NET side into an .asp page,
passing the session name on the get in order to request it from the
ASP side and write it back to the response stream, giving ASP.NET
access to it. Of course I change sessions each time I make the call
from the ASP.NET side.
Soooooo, I'm thinking to myself, "Self, shouldn't you be able to fake
out the server by getting the session cookie from the initial usage of
the asp, pass that data to the ASP.NET, and use that to send a request
back the ASP side under the appropriate session?"
From a real high level, I enter the site via a .asp page. This page
in turn calls .aspx page from within a frame ......

Can anyone tell me the difference between Session and Cookie? Does Application Object and Session works the same way?
How do we know when to use Session and cookie?
I am not asp specialist and i was wondering what to choose - session or a cookie.
the idea is to make something like a shop but without the function "remember me" ... more like "in memory" cookies. so apparently i will have to use a session or a "in memory" cookie but which one is better. as to my knowledge the session does not differ dramaticaly from the cookie because it uses because as u know it is based on cookies. however why should i use session instead of cookies if the result will be exact the same i.e. if browser does not support cookies the whole thing won't work out?

I'm seeing a problem with IE running on OS-X. When the user logs in to the
website (ASP/IIS5), a Session is established properly, but somewhere along
the line, a new Session is created and abandoned. At that point, the user
must log in again due to the code logic (their Session is "gone" and they're
then invalid). The original Session's On_End event never fires (or perhaps
it doesn't until the timeout which is 40 minutes).
I am monitoring the Session_OnStart and Session_OnEnd events with debug
code.
This problem only exists for this one user and the only difference between
her and the other users is that she's running IE on OS-X. IE on OS-9 works
fine as does IE on Windows.
IE version 5.2.1 (4717)
OS-X version 10.2.4
First, I like to know if I can specify how long a session variable could expire?
I am having problem with user logged in period when using session variable.
When I logged in and go away from keyboard for like 10mins. By then I have to login again in order to post or any website features that requires login.
I have not yet create a cookie for the user when they are login.
What is the proper way of doing it?
The session_onstart event will fire for every pull BECAUSE no SESSIONID cookie is ever created and the server has to assume that every HTTP REQUEST frame is a new session. The response object is actually just setting a header, of course.
Every redirect is sending a header to the browser equivalent to a "meta refresh" and that once again triggers the session_onstart.
There are two cookie types:
1) session cookie.
2) persistent cookie is the same as tracking cookie?
Is that correct?
For windows machine, the files in C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorCookies
are all persistent cookie, it doesn't have session cookie?
How session cookies are stored? Session cookie should expire once the browser is closed.
If I start a session on our web app then close all browsers, I expect that
the session cookie would be deleted and that the session itself would exist
until it expired. I then start a new instance of the browser expecting to
get a new session id and a new session, but instead I reconnect to the
unexpired session. Does anyone know why the session cookie is persisting
despite the closure of all the IE windows?
I'm not exactly hot on asp, but I have managed to create a members area / pages on a site that requires the usual login etc through username and passwords.
The problem that I'm having is that people are being logged out and forced to log back in etc.
Here's the code for the log-in form on the site: ....
how I could store the referrer id in this URL http://www.widget.co.uk?referrer=1234 into a session cookie. I've been given this code by someone else but my knowledge of ASP is virutally non-existent and they need this feature in the site as soon as possible.
<%dim vntRef
if request.querystring("referrer") <> "" then
vntRef = request.querystring("referrer")
session("svRef") = vntRef
end if
if session("svRef") = "" then
session("svRef") = vntRef
end if

where this code goes and how I reference it(if I need to) that would be fantastic. Basically I wasn't told about this until after the site went live and they're now telling me to get it done quick smart so the quicker the better.
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?
I'm writing an application to authenticate a user using a challenge
response mechanism. The client and server components of the
application talk over HTTP.
I would like to use an ASP session object to hold a random number on
the server. The code to store the number is written as part of a VB
web class.
When I read the http header returned from my server, I can't see the
session cookie. Why is this? If I create a normal cookie as part of
my web class, it is returned correctly within the header.
I am using HttpQueryInfo the read the header as follows:
blnReturn = CBool(HttpQueryInfo(hOpenRequest, HTTP_QUERY_RAW_HEADERS,
ByVal strBuffer, Len(strBuffer), 0))
I want to know if user disable cookie, will the session still working? Actually I remember we could disable cookie in IE before (not sure what version, but I couldn't see
the option anymore. Now I am using IE6.
I am having a problem tracking down what I believe to be a problem with
the way cookies are being used on our website application.
When user log onto the application, an in-memory (per-session) cookie
is created to hold the session key for the user. This unique key is
assigned as part of the business layer logon process, and never changes
while the user is logged on. The call to the business component returns
this unique key if the logon was successful, and the cookie is set up
as follows:
Response.Cookies("SessionKey").Path = "/"
Response.Cookies("SessionKey") = strSessionKey
Nowhere is the cookie assigned an .expires value.
Once a user has completed this logon process, they must then click past
an intermediate agreement page before actually having access to the main
application. When this intermediate page is submitted, it accesses the
cookie, extracts the session identifier and writes the value to a
database table.
The code to achieve this looks something like:
strSessionKey = Request.Cookies("SessionKey")
Dim objInstance
Set objInstance = Server.CreateObject("SomeComponent.SomeClass")
objInstance.StoreIdentifier strSessionKey
Set objInstance= nothing
The whole process works fine until I try to do the second stage (the
intermediate agreement) with two separate IE sessions (there are 2
separate IEXPLORER.EXE entries in task manager) very quickly.
I can go through the whole process fine, and then while leaving the
application open, I can start again with a new IE window and complete
the process again. In each case the correct identifier is stored in the
database for each separate session.
If I get to the second stage of the logon process with 2 separate IE
sessions, and submit both agreement pages at the same time (or as close
together as I can), then they both write the same unique session
identifier to the database, as if they are accessing the same cookie!
The session identifier used is the one from the first agreement page I
submit. This definitely only happens if I do this at the same time.
Wait a few seconds between the submissions and all is well.
Has anyone come across something like this before and can advise on a
possible reason?
is it possible to delete a cookie? without ending the session?
View Replies View Relatedhi im trying to make a cookie behave like a session so every time i load or reload the page it gives him this line:
