Cookie Issue: Not all cookies being added

[jsanborn]

I have a strange issue happening with cookie creation. I have spent all night last night searching for a solution, including banging my head on the code for a while.

I have a dynamic web form with approximately 20 fields that, after being validated, are written to a cookie. Every time I execute the For...Next loop it appears to work, but not all the fields are added to cookies. I added a test label to see if the loop was executing properly, and it was, so I know the cookie code is executing, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why, every time, it drops the first two or three cookie values. It doesn't matter what the names of these fields care, because even when I change the names, they still don't write to the cookie.

Here is the For...Next code that writes the cookies.

[tt]
'----------------------------------------
Dim FormIndex As Integer
For FormIndex = 0 To Request.Form.Count - 1
Dim Cookie As New HttpCookie("BStore-" & Request.Form.Keys.Item(FormIndex))
Cookie.Name = "BStore-" & Request.Form.Keys.Item(FormIndex)
Cookie.Value = Request.Form.Item(FormIndex)
Cookie.Expires = Now.AddYears(1)
Response.Cookies.Add(Cookie)
Next
'----------------------------------------
[/tt]

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried Dim-ing the Cookie and setting its name property out of the loop, add the values inside the loop, then do the Add(Cookie) thing after the loop is done?

Yes, it still removed the first two or three values from the cookie.

Just an additional thought. I know I read somewhere that there can only be 20 cookies assigned to a domain. Could this mean cookie values? I notice that when I cycle through the cookies, that there are only 20 stored in the cookie.
