Regarding Cookies Expiry

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?

Cookies Expiry Date

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"

Cookies On Localhost, Path & Expiry Issues

suppose 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.

Page Expiry

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?

Expiry Page

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.

Database Record Expiry

I 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 Cookie Expiry Date Using JavaScript?

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.

Read Cookie Expiry Date?

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?

ASP Classic Session Bug, Related To Cookie Expiry

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?

Creating 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.

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...

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).

How can I use a cookie to automatically log a user in??

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?

Using Cookies - Best Way To Do This?

im building a site for a few doctors surgeries. the user is able to see what appointments are available and then book that date/time. i have a table (in my db) of dates/times and a checkbox to say whether the time has been booked or not (and display only times that havnt been booked). i was going to have the user add the time to a "cart" and then check the "booked" checkbox in my db when theyve paid for that appointment. but if i have lots of people looking at the site at the same time, then they may be able to see times that are just about to be booked. i think a better way is to have the date/time stuffed into a cookie which expires after 5 minutes. so when a user adds a time to their "cart", it will say something like: "this time will expire in 5 minutes until you book it or re-add it to your cart". does that make sense?
how can i do this with server-cide cookies (im using jscript)? can anyone think of a better way to do this?

Cookies

I need to set a cookie on a user after they have logged in. I want to
use just the user's login name , since that is a unique field.

If rsPersonIDCheck.EOF Then
Session("blnValidUser") = False
Else
Session("login") = rsPersonIDCheck("login")

but:
set Cookies("User") = Session("login")
seems not to be creating the cookie

In my web application i'm are able to store large data in

cookies per browser, 20 keys per cookie per domain and 4KB
max size of each cookie. i'm are unable to retreive this
large amount of data immediately after storing through
document.cookie in IE browser (The same works fine in
Netscape).

Is there any limit on the size of the data that can be

CDO + Cookies

I found that a number of my sites that send email using CDO failed withing the past 30 days. Consider the following. I know its not the best coding practice to open and close the connection so many times but Im curious why this would all of a sudden become an issue.

1. Have a few large sites essentially all variables such as SMTP server are set using cookies so I can deploy multiple sites quickly.

2. Within the site email appears to work correctly across all pages with 1 exception.

3. The exception is below, Im wondering if it has to do with cookies having to be retrieved multiple times from the client machine

--Call db run search loop data build array

--Based on data in array call another search alter and finalize array

--Do while <= uBound(myArray)

--Call Email sub (from,to,sub,body) ' Sub contains a request cookies for SMTP server.

--Loop

Doesnt matter if its 2 or 50 emails always fails when using request.cookies to set the SMTP in the sub. Works fine if I hard code the IP. This same sub is used multiple times throughout the website and works fine with cookies.

Just curious why it needs might need to be hard coded in the loop. Has been running for about 6 months fine and have recently started noticing failures.

Cookies

I started using the following code, although, I have a feeling it is not working. Also, do I have to place the same code on all accessed pages? Code:

Response.Cookies("ExpCookie") = "Expiration"
Response.Cookies("ExpCookie").Expires = DateAdd("d", 1, Now())
Response.Cookies("ExpCookie").Secure = True
Response.Cookies("LastVisit") = Date & " " & Time
%>
I am new at all of this, I can understand that this cookie will expire an hour after being access on a given day (is that right?), and it will create the cookie with the printed date and time of access. how can I make sure cookie expire on time.
