How does one read and write the cookie expiration date. At the moment my code is returning a value BUT a garbled value:
'//Write cookie...
Response.Cookies("Propsect").Expires = Date() + 1
'//Read cookie...
ExpDate = Request.cookies("Propsect")
Response.write "Prospect expiry date: " & expDate & "<br>"
Result: u%5Fname=k
Any ideas?
I'm trying to set a cookie expiry date but my script is JS (JavaScript). I've
tried
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toLocaleString();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toString();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toUTCString();
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.
We are working on an old asp project and we noticed that some users get
kicked out of the session right after they log in.
I investigated the issue and I found the cause:
1- The user login successfuly.
2- He gets redirected to the menu screen. that's when I set some
cookies to cookie("cookie name").expires = Now. that when the session
starts to disapear, once the user tries to access other pages (or even
refresh), the ASPSESSIONID cookie disapears.
I did some debugging on the http_cookie collection and looks like the
ASPSESSION disapears once I set the cookie expiration, although I set
the expiration for cookies unrelated to the ASPSESSIONID.
Here is the tricky thing, it works on 90% of the machines, and it
doesn't on other machines, it's also random, so some users who had the
problem, are now able to work on the system and the problem disapeard.
Have you guys ever had this problem, or do you know if it is related to
IE batches or service packs?
I want to create a cookie that remembers the member's log in password and username. But i do not know how to set an expiry for the cookie. I understand that if I set to the one below, when the user closes and reopens the browser, he will still be logged in. But i wish to let the cookie expire once the browser is closed. How can i specify that?
Response.Cookies( theName ).Expires = "July 31, 2008"
This may or may not be a simple question, but I have been able to find
an answer to this issue in all my searches.
In an ASP application, I'm creating a cookie that stores a username
from pageA.asp
I then try to read the cookie from pageB.asp, which is inside a frame
of pageC.asp.
The problem is I can't read it from pageB.asp. Can anyone please help?
NOTE: If I make pageB.asp as a standalone page without being called
from the frame in pageC.asp, THEN I can read the cookie. But this is
not what I want.
If this wasn't clear please do let me know.
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:
dtmExp = DateAdd("n", 20, Now())
Response.Cookies("MyCookie").Expires = dtmExp
I am working with a developer, on two portions to a site, he is working in PHP and my work is done in ASP.
Is it possible for my pages to request data from a cookie that was written by his pages that are PHP but residing on the same server? Just want to make sure before I spend too much time planning out the development on my end.
I got stuck with some cookies expiry date. I wanted my cookies to expired every 4 hours. I'm writing with ASP. Currently I'm using the below code:
Response.Cookies("announcement").Expires = date + 1
for the expiry of everyday. How can I write if I want the cookies to expire every 4 hours?
I have developed a portal wherein a user is allowed to access certain areas only through an id and password. But what happens is that once the user logs in, accesses his areas etc and forgets about it,the back button of the browser enables him to view the last accessed pages,which are restricted through the id/password.
Can someone please tell me how such a situation may be avoided so as to restrict unauthorised access?
I have a form that submits values on fields to an add to database asp page that works fine. However I do not want duplicate values submitted. How can I make the submitting page expire once the results have been successfully passed on to the page that adds the results to the database, so that the user may not submit the same thing again and again. I would like the receiving page make the sending page expire.
View Replies View RelatedI have a mysql database and i want to make the records have an expiry time. i'm thinking have a field with the time the record was added and then add another field which is that time + 7 days for example. then on my search results page have some code that only displays records before or on the expiry date.
I've looked for other similar things on the internet but can't find anything relevant. does this sound ok, or does anyone know of a better way to do it?
set Server.ScriptTimeout variable to 214783647. it's maximum timeout value. insert the following sentence at start line of your asp file.

I have an asp application. However, the scripting time is too early too expried. How can I extend the scripting time for an individual asp page, or set for one website.
View Replies View Relatedsuppose i have a script which sets a cookie in this manner:
Response.Cookies("session_id") = '12345'
Response.Cookies("session_id").Expires = <future date here>
Response.Cookies("session_id").Path = "/"
and another script which clears it like this
Response.Cookies("session_id") = ""
The scripts are located in a directory "mysite" under iis root directory
and accessed through http://localhost/mysite/something.asp
When these are called repeatedly, everything works as expected
(script number 1 sets the cookie and number 2 clears it)
However, when I create a virtual directory called "mysite" and point it
to the same place, script number one is no longer able to set the cookie
after script number two has been called, even though they are still accessed
exactly the same way (http://localhost/mysite/something.asp)
But when I modify the code in script number one by removing the last two lines
("expires" and "path") it works as expected again.
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 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?

Above does work as I want it to do BUT it inserts 1/8/2006 instead of 8/1/2006 as it should!
The best thing would be to exclude the date from updating at all, but when taking away the line:

It gives an error... how do I solve this?
I forgot, you might want to see this:

I am trying to construct an SQL statement that can grab all of the entries out of a table, where the Date field consists of today's date. The Date field is called 'DateTime' - and it is in a General Date format (DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS). I obviusly want to use an SQL statement like this:
SELECT * FROM tblExample WHERE (DateTime = Date());
However, that wont work because Date() will only return a short date (DD/MM/YYYY).
I would like to modify this so that the first available date that can be selected is five BUSINESS days out. The script only shows Mon-Fri so if the date is Tue Jul 13, 2004, Tue Jul 20, 2004 needs to be displayed. Code:

"SELECT id, title FROM Businesses WHERE Date_Added >= " &
Request.Form("Since_Date")
This SQL string returns all records from the table Businesses and does
not seem to be able to recognise Request.Form("Since_Date") as a valid
date. The Since_Date value is entered into a form field as
"01-Jan-2005" and appears to be treated as a date; when viewing the
SQL statement(with a response.write) it shows the date as 1/1/2005
even if it is entered into the form as 2005/1/1
I've also tried CDate(Request.Form("Since_Date")) with no luck,
although this was the treatment that worked when the SQL statement was
running in an .idc file.
Date_Added is a regular DateTime field in an Access 2000 database

I'm trying to get all records from my SQL Server Database with
"DeadlineDate" = today (not today - 24 hours).
All records has a field called "DeadlineDate", and the date is stored in
this field like this: 13.08.2005 07:00:00
I dont care about the hours (Ex: 07:00:00), just the date (ex: 13.08.2005).
This is the SQL I have made, it gets all the record with the date = today -
24 hours... but that is not what I want.
sql = "select title from tblProject where (deadlineDate BETWEEN DATEADD(d, -
1, GETDATE()) AND GETDATE())"
How can I get just the records that has the date = today's date??

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.

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?
