IE Seems To Expire All Cookies Instead Of One
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 :
Response.Cookies(STR_FICHR_TEMN_CONTX).Path = "/"
Response.Cookies(STR_FICHR_TEMN_CONTX) = ""
Response.Cookies(STR_FICHR_TEMN_CONTX).Expires = CDate
("2000-01-01")
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 ?
Cookies Expire And Time Zones
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?

View Replies View RelatedCreating Cookies In Global.asa Session_OnStart But Cannot Read Cookies On Subsequent Pages.
In my Session_OnStart in Global.asa, I am setting some cookies. One
of them, I set as follows:
dim UserID
UserID = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
Response.Cookies("User")("ID") = UCASE(UserID)
When I immediately log the cookie value retrieved from
Request.Cookies("User")("ID") into the Windows Event Log, I get the
correct value. However, when I try to retrieve the cookie on the home
page of my application using the same code,
Request.Cookies("User")("ID"), it either cannot find the cookie or
cannot read the value. I am retrieving the cookie before all HTML
headers are written. It is my first statement on the page after
Option Explicit. I have even compared the session IDs. The SessionID
created in the Session_OnStart is the same value as the SessionID on
the home page.
I have read that the Session_OnStart only has access to the
Application, Session and Request objects. It does not explicitly say
that it does not have access to the Response object. Also, I was even
able to use Response.Write's in Global.asa to print out the values
although it looked like it had also stopped the session after I did
so. Cookies are definitely enabled on my machine. I have even tried
setting the session cookie's expiration to be persistent for a few
days to see if it was perhaps expiring before I was able to read it
but this did not work either.
Is there something preventing cookies to be created in Global.asa in
the Session_OnStart sub? Is the Response object not available???
Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem or solution.

View Replies View RelatedASP Session Does Not Expire
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.

View Replies View RelatedHow Can I Expire A Page?
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:
<%
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = #1/1/1980#
Response.AddHeader "cache-control", "no-cache"
Response.AddHeader "pragma", "no-cache"
%>
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?

Password Expire
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.

Cookie Expire Date Question
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

Should I Make My ASP Admin Pages Expire?
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.

Cookies?
I am creating a user tracking app that tracks a user one of two ways...
1)First Method is cookies
2)Second Method MS SQL DB
I first check if the users browser accepts cookies if not I go to the db. If the user accepts cookies then I check for a specific crumb if it does not have the value I am looking for I kill it and rewrite it. This is working fine (im in the middle of testing it). The problem is I decieded to test the script with NN7 and not turn cookies off but block cookies from my site and all fell apart. The condition that I have set (detect if cookies are enabled) does not stop the script from trying to set a Session Variable because the browser accepts cookies and to keep a long story short it goes into an infinite loop because the script is looking for a Session value and Its not being stopped becaues the script thinks its alright to write cookies! Is there a way to detect if a user has your sites cookies blocked? This is important because Server.CreateObject("MSWC.BrowserType") will return .Cookies = True and you will not know that your script is not executing properly because a user has your sites cookies blocked but excepts them elsewhere...
Should We Use Cookies??

Log-in Cookies
I've built a website which requires a user to log-in to access the site. I have already built a page that enters their details into a db (register.asp), and another page where the user enters their email address (the log-in ID) to actually log-in (login.asp).

More specifically, what are the commands to set a cookie (upon successful registration) and access it (upon re-logging in)?
Using Cookies
Hey i've spent the last few hours trying to work this problem out about cookies.
When a user logs in to the site the login.asp page checks the database to see the personal page that the user re directs to e.g if bob brown logged in he would be redirected to bob.brown.asp. This is stored in a field in the database table along with the username and password.
i would like to put a cookie onto the users computer that remembers the url they were redirected to so when they press the main page button it would look for the cookie and see what url they are meant to be redirected to and take them there
My current login system is this ....
Getting Cookies
I'm trying to load up a page through my asp page and get the cookie from that page so that I can use it later on when it needs to have it to access other parts of the site.
Basically the asp page is going to act like a browser and store the cookie from the other site, then send that cookie back when the asp page goes back to the other site again.
The problem is, I can only seem to access my own cookie. I didn't run into this problem when I was doing a similar thing inside my .cs scripts that were run by the server, as I suppose they were not coming from the actual domain that my page is running on (and thus, wasn't getting everything trampled by local cookies).
Is this possible, or should I just give up on it now?
