I'm using the MSXML.XMLHTTP object to obtain the results of an ASP page from
an ASP page on the same server. The problem I have is that when the AP
refrenced by the XMLHTTP object is run it does now share the session with
the calling page ? How can I solve this ?
I have an ASP page that is using an XMLHTTP object to request various pages from my server. I keep a single session throughout the XMLHTTP requests by bassing the ASPSESSIONID cookie through the XMLHTTP object.
However, when the page requested through the XML object makes a
<%Response.Redirect()%>
call, a new session is created each time.
Is this a flaw in the XMLHTTP Object? How can I force the session to remain the same after a Response.Redirect call?
How can I use xmlhttp function in ASP page? And, how can I get the xmlhttp parameters using Javascript?

We have a problem with an ASP application using MSXML 4.0 component. In this application we use the method GetOption() of the MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.4.0 tu get the last URL called (with option -1). Before installing MSXML 4.0 SP2 with the above revision all works ok, but after that the funcionality has changed.
The method returns now the same URL we have called, not the last URL (for example a redirection made). Could anyone tell me if there´s any change in the behavior of the methods of this component with the SP2 and which is the solution for the problem mentioned?
Do you need to declare the XPath Language anymore if the server has MSXML4 installed?

xmlDoc.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath"

the documetns I want to include are stored in the server where the website resides, not on another webserver. Otherwise I'd have no choice but to use msxml.

I am building a website to pull data from a remote https site using xmlhttp. The data from the https site is behind a login screen. I can successfully get through the login screen with:

That works great - but then, when I try to go to the next page (where the data is that I want to pull) - I use the same process and I get kicked back out to the login screen?

I have used the software IETrace and it looks like some cookies being passed, but how do I know for sure if (and what exactly) it is using?

View Replies View RelatedI recently bought a new web server and am in the process of migrating
all of our websites over. We're going from Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 to
Windows 2003 IIS 6.0.
I've been able to get everything to work
correctly except for the SessionID's. For some reason I'm getting a
new SessionID on EVERY single page that I visit! Which makes it quite
difficult to login and add items to your cart...hehe.
Everything is running ASP, there is no ASP.NET pages, I don't even have
the 1.0 or the 2.0 Framework installed on the server yet. I verified
that the Globals.asa is on the server on and config'ed correctly.
I have an index page containing several IFRAMES that hold a couple of apps which require logins. To avoid having to login 3 or 4 times when the index page first loads, I had the IFRAMES load a page with a link to click to actually go to the page requiring login. The issue I have is that after you've logged in to a couple of these pages, when you refresh the index page, all the IFRAMES go back to the link page.
You don't have to log in again, but this makes you have to click the link again. What I'd like is a way to only show the link page the first time the index page loads it up, but after you've clicked on the link once and logged in, then the next time the index refreshes, you skip the link page and go straight to the app.
I am currently working on an online shopping cart. The working is like:-
1. First the user selects the things.
2. Next page is the detail of the things that he has selected.
Now the third page allows the user to check his address..but before that he has to log in(if he is not logged in). and after logging in he must be redirected to the checkaddress page with his details intact.
What could the likely cause of a session value being lost when one navigates
to another page and attempts to write that session out:
Page 1

Navigate to Page 2
Response.write Session("u_name")
....."_name" seems to be empty on Page 2.
What am I doing wrong here?
I have a login page that Test's for the username and then tests for the password. If these test true then I redirect them to the member area. What I want to test for is if there is 1 user logged in with Session("test") = 1 and another user logs in with the credentials to set Session("Test") = 1 then the first session will terminate. The new user will then be able to navigate the member area.There will also be other user on with a Session("Test") = xxx where xxx is the Primary key of the validation table.
View Replies View RelatedI have been using session variables to pass a user name from one ASP
page to another inside framesets for 9 months and it stopped working
this week. I have made no code changes but there was a "security
update" installed on the server a few days ago but I can't find out
exactly what it was.
In the research I have done I found many articles on the subject of
session variables in ASP pages inside framesets. From what I read a
new session will be started every time a new ASP page is accessed
until a session variable is set, once a session variable is set the
session will stay the same from page to page, even when using frames.
It is possible to start a session by setting a session variable in the
global.asa file.
My page 1 sets the session variable "username", this page calls page 2
which then uses the "username" variable. This still works on the two
test servers I have where no upgrades of any kind have been done. I
changed the code to display the Session.SessionID in both page 1 and
page 2. On my test systems I get the same session id number, on my
production system I get two different session id numbers and when I
turn on prompting for all cookies I get the session cookie prompt when
the second page is called. The two test systems are on the same
network as my workstation, the production machine on the internet at a
hosting site.
I have cookies enabled in my browser, session state is enabled in IIS
and there are no special characters in the domain name of the web
site. I did not have a global.asa file so I added one and I set a
session variable in the global.asa just to get the session started.
What I find interesting is if I display the variable I set in the
global.asa file I can see it on both page 1 and page 2 but on page 2
I can't see the variables set on page 1. I am completely stumped.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get this working again? .....

ASP Session/Cookies, Help to Protect Page from Non users I am a beginner and very urgently need some help
I have created a asp page, that takes in a username and password and validates it as follows and then if true continues to the pages requested.
Code:
'Read in the password for the user from the database
If (((Request.Form("txtUser")) = rsCheckUser("User_pass")) and (rsCheckUser("User_lev") = 1) ) Then
'If rsCheckUser("User_level") = 1 Then
'THE ABOVE CHECKS THE INFO IS CORRECT AND IT REDIRECTS TO THE PAGE BELOW and Session=True
'If the password is correct then set the session variable to True
Session("blnIsUserGood") = "True"
'Redirect to the authorised user page and send the users name
Response.Redirect"user_self_update_form.asp?ID=" & rsCheckUser("ID") & ""
'Close Objects before redirecting
Set adoCon = Nothing
Set strCon = Nothing
Set rsCheckUser = Nothing
End If
Now this code takes you to page :Response.Redirect"user_self_update_form.asp?ID=" & rsCheckUser("ID") & ""
Which is something like /project/user_self_update_form.asp?ID=1
Since after the login you do to this, you are allowed to see this page.
But The page user_self_update_form.asp?ID= can also be access if you just put the link on the browser. Lets say i log in as ID 2, and just change the ID to 3 on the address bar in the browser, i will log into someone elses page.
How to i block this from random access and only the SPECIFIC USER?
Code for user_self_update_form.asp (the protected page unless you are logged it):
The Session = False part just does not work here, so if you get this link of someone, you can just get it, and you are not redirected.
<%
'If the session variable is False or does not exsist then redirect the user to the unauthorised user page
If Session("blnIsUserGood") = False or IsNull(Session("blnIsUserGood")) = True then

I need help with setting up a page where the viewer has to accept terms before they can access the rest of the website.
The page will have a bit of text explaining why they need to accept oor decline the terms and then have 2 buttons. ie. accept or decline.
What I need to be able to do is set this up so that if the viewer tries to bypass the accept/ decline page they will get re-directed to it. If they have clicked the accept button then they can view anywhere on the site.
I understand that 'sessions' in IIS don't actually close until about 20 mins after the user has left the site and can live with that. But if they come back the next day they must go through the accept/decline page to get into the site. It doesn't have to have usernames or password, they just have to accept.
I understand that you set up several pages to do this, i.e. the accept/decline page, a 'checkterms' page (which sets the session cookie?) and then some code on every other page on the site to check for the presence of the session cookie and let you view if it is there. If not, redirects you to the Accept/Decline page.
The problem I have is I don't know what code to write and where to put it into the page.
I do contract work for an organization that has some of the word code I have ever seen. I think they are using some sort of screwy CMS or something.
The code on their pages are pages stacked on pages, in other word one page loaded into a browser might have 3 <html><body></body></html> sets. Its really bad. So I started working on a page that has a form. It is included in the main page with this line of code:
I have a quick signup for a friends page, and at the end of the signup I wanna destroy all the session variables using the nice session.abandon then create two session variables for the username and password so they're already signed in, then redirect them to the index page already logged in. Problem is the session variables don't get saved on the redirect when the session has been abandoned on the page. If I take the abandon out and destroy the session variables individually everything works fine and the new session variables survive. But if I abandon the session then set the new variables they do not. Yes, they are being set after the abandon, and do exist as I've written them to the browser before the redirect. Its not that big a deal in such a small scale to delete all the variables individually, but theres gotta be a way incase it was hundreds of session variables right.

One of the limitations of ASP is the lack of a dynamic SSI, in which you can include files using variables.

Or are there other ways that are much better?

However, on a new project im on, im a little stuck, and not sure if it is at all possible. The next page im trying to get info from there's a chain of 3 pages. so Form -> Middle -> Results.
I've tried inputting my own form data, but i get the page info from the Middle link, and not the Results link. Any ideas how i can go on to the Results link?
At the moment i dont think it's possible, but i haven't been in this game for long.
