Topic awaiting preservation: ASP session cookies - need perm. (Page 1 of 1)

One of my ASP pages sets a cookie. After setting the cookie (response.cookie()) checking the cookie (request.cookie()) claims the cookie is there. But when the browser is closed, there is no cookie in the "temp inet files" folder. It seems it is setting a "per session" cookie, and I need it to WRITE the cookie to the "temp Inet Files" folder like any other website seems to do. But it doesn't do it.

Any ideas?

I'm not an ASP expert but it could be that you are not setting the domain, path or experation dates properly when setting the cookie. Also I believe that only IE uses the temp ineternet files dir.

We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

Response.Cookies("CookieName").Expires = Date + 7

For one week for example.

cookie().Expires...

Aye, that's the rub!

Freakin' InterDev IDE. popup tooltips show COUNT, ITEM (and KEY I think), but says nothing of "expires"

Thanks!
