Cookie set, but not passing to the next page.

[JimJazz]

I'm setting a cookie to store a username for an extended period of time.

'If the user requested to be remembered...
If memory = 1 Then
Response.Cookies("Username") = rsLogin.Fields.Item("Username").Value
Response.Cookies("Username").Expires= Date() + 7
Session.Contents.Remove("Username")
Else

'If the user did not request to be remembered...
Session("Username") = rsLogin.Fields.Item("Username").Value
Response.Cookies("Username") = ""

End If

Due to the problem, I test it like this...

Response.Write("cookie -> " & Request.Cookies("Username") & "<br><br>")
Response.Write("<a href=""test.asp"">test.asp</a>")

Which gives me the output

cookie -> jimjazz

test.asp

Next, I click on the "test.asp" link. On the test.asp page, I run the same test code..

Response.Write("cookie -> " & Request.Cookies("Username") & "<br><br>")

And it gives the output:

cookie ->

What gives?

(these are results for IE8, everything seems to work fine in FF3.5, but 98% of all my users are IE)

Oh... and I've set my IE permissions to "override automatic cookie handling" and accept everything. No dice.

Why can't everyone just use firefox and make me happy?

hey Jim, try this:

<%
dim x,y
for each x in Request.Cookies
  response.write("<p>")
  if Request.Cookies(x).HasKeys then
    for each y in Request.Cookies(x)
      response.write(x & ":" & y & "=" & Request.Cookies(x)(y))
      response.write("<br />")
    next
  else
    Response.Write(x & "=" & Request.Cookies(x) & "<br />")
  end if
  response.write "</p>"
next
%>

What does this give you?
