Setting cookies

[TonyU]

[tt]Can someone help me with setting up a cookie when the user logs in and checks the "remember me" checkbox?


I would like to set a username cookie but not sure how. Here's my form

***********************************************

<form action=&quot;<%=MM_LoginAction%>&quot;MM_valusername&quot&quot; name=&quot;form2&quot; onSubmit=&quot;MM_validateForm('login','','R','password','','R');return document.MM_returnValue&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;>
<DIV align=&quot;center&quot;>
<P>

response.write &quot;<font color=red>Login failed. Please try again or register to create your account.</font>&quot;
end if %>

i don't see a &quot;remember me&quot; check box on your page, but rather a &quot;remember me&quot; link that calls up an asp page. assuming that the &quot;check&quot; check box fills that function and that you use an asp page to process the form data when it's submitted, the following should work from the asp page that processes the data...

<%
if request(&quot;check&quot;) = &quot;on&quot; then
  response.cookies(&quot;userID&quot;) = request(&quot;login&quot;)
end if
%>
