HttpApplication - Best event to work with Session & Cookies

[Mike Gleason jr Couturier]

Hi,

When a user log itself in my web site, I set a cookie.
When the use come back after, let's say, a day, I check the cookie and set a
value in the user's Session (If the cookie exists). I also update the
cookie.

I need to do this before the page gets processed.

Where in the application chain would you put this piece of code (the part
where it manipulates the cookies and the session)

Thanks !

Mike

you want the PreRequestHandlerExecute event, it fires between load state and
process request.

It's weird, it seems I already tried it. But I remembered that It made my
AJAX JavaScript failed and my CSS failed when loading the page...

I'll retry tonight when back home, thanks!

Cool everything's working fine....

I made a javascript error that caused all the site to break because I was
setting my cookie via a RegisterstartupScript (It seems AJAX asynch postback
doesn't parse cookie headers).

Thanks!
