An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, orproperty 'System.Web.UI.Page.Request.get'

[jake]

I think I may know why this is happening but I am a little fuzzy as to
what the solution should be as I am somewhat new to all of this.

The bare-bones code that generates the error upon compilation is:

class cart
{
public static string fetchCartCookie Value()
{
return Request.Cookies["cartCookie "].Value;
}


}

Any help is appreciated.

Jake,

my guess would be you have not initialized Request and that Cookies is
not static.
If that is where the compile error is coming up that that would be your
problem.

DH,
Yes I realize that that may well be true. But how may I code a static
method that can retrieve a cookie value?

This code works for me, using VS 2008:

public class Cart
{
public static string fetchCartCookie Value()
{
return HttpContext.Cur rent.Request.Co okies["cartCookie "].Value;
}
}
