Can't get my cookies to work

[codefinger]

IN DEFAULT.ASP

Sub window_onload

Dim ls_cookie

ls_cookie = &quot;<%=Request.Cookies(&quot;username&quot%>&quot;

frmAR.textuserid.innerText = ls_cookie



End Sub

..Allows user to submit a form to DIRECTOR.ASP, which
contains the following:



<%@ Language=VBScript%>

<%


Response.Buffer = true

Response.Expires=0

Response.Cookies(&quot;username&quot = Request.Form.Item(&quot;textuserid&quot

Response.Redirect Request.Form.Item(&quot;radionewcheck&quot


%>


My cookies don't work, ie, the userid text box is NOT automatically populated when the form is loaded. I am not sure if the problem is how I try to get the value, or how I tried to save it in the first place. I am at a loss as to what I am doing wrong.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'm no expert myself but i use cookies on my site and this is what it should look like i think

Dim ls_cookie
ls_cookie = Request.Cookies(&quot;username&quot
frmAR.textuserid.innerText = ls_cookie

if you add the <% and %> inside vbscript code area you'll get bugs. hope that helps

I tried it, but I get an &quot;object required&quot; error on that line.
I have posted the code to

Maybe you can see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks.

codefinger,

the window_onload script you wrote is fine:

Sub window_onload

Dim ls_cookie

ls_cookie = &quot;<%=Request.Cookies(&quot;username&quot%>&quot;

frmAR.textuserid.value = ls_cookie

in your director.asp page you only need to write:
Response.Cookies(&quot;username&quot = Request.Form(&quot;textuserid&quot

instead of using 'item'

Also,

is your site running in a virtual directory in IIS?

have you set the path and expiry date for cookies?
