Cookies

[gm456]

I'm setting up a system whereby when a user sucessfully logs on, a cookie is set which is used later on to show extra fields etc. on a search form.<br><br>After validation:<br><br>&lt;CFCOOKIE NAME=&quot;APLPRV&quot; VALUE=#username#&gt;<br>&lt;cflocation url=&quot;search.cfm?cat=enttain&quot;&gt;<br><br>However, search.cfm does not see the cookie.<br><br>Any ideas?&nbsp;&nbsp;I've got the same problem on two sites :-(<br><br>Garry

That is because you are redirecting to another page directly after setting the cookie, so the cookie never gets sent to the client.<br>A cookie gets sent to a client along with the page, so you cannot do a CFLOCATION right after.<br><br> <p>Russ Michaels<br><a href=mailto:russ@satachi.com>russ@satachi.com</a><br><a href=

If you use CFLOCATION to redirect the Cookie will not get set. Alternatively use Javascript to redirect after setting the Cookie.....
