Cookie and Session Cookie Questions.

[Shapper]

Hello,

I am working on an ASP.NET / VB web page.

How can I set a cookie in my visitor computer and also a Session Cookie?
And how can I retrieve their values?

I will run it when page loads.

Thank You,
Miguel

Hi Miguel,

You can use the Response object of ASP.NET to write cookies.
The Response object has a Cookies collection to which you add the
cookies you want to write to the browser.

You can add cookies to the Response.Cookies collection in a couple of ways.
The following example shows two methods to accomplish the task:
Response.Cookies("userName").Value = "mike"
Response.Cookies("userName").Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)

Dim aCookie As New HttpCookie("lastVisit")
aCookie.Value = DateTime.Now.ToString
aCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)
Response.Cookies.Add(aCookie)Following is a link which discusses this topic in detail:
