Web Browser Cookie setup

[ZmrAbdulla]

I have posted this in the VB6 Forum thread222-1009868
They advised to post it in the HTML forum. My problem is below
I have created a web browser with the VB6. The form is just inserted from the wizards of VB.
On Open the program there will be five instances of the form with different url to be navigated. It is all working fine.
My problem is. It is not recognizing the cookie setup in the computer. For instance TEK-TIPS Remember me setup cookie is recognized by Internet explorer. If open with my browser I have to login to the page for the first opening of the day. Then it is not a problem how many time you open or close it remembers me. But some of the cookies are not recognized at all.
Is ther anything I can do to remember the cookies?
Regards

Zameer,
Where is YOUR browser looking for / storing cookies? Or IS it?

It could be that Tek-Tips is using session variables when it can't find cookies on your end (although if you're closing your browser, that probably isn't the case) or that cookies are expiring in your browser. (I'm just guessing ...)

You can test your browser at

among other places to see if you ARE accepting cookies.
I found the above site by googling: html cookie test pages

traingamer, thank for looking into my problem & the link.

I think it is not storing the cookie setup. Or it can't find the cookies in my PC.
I browse many sites that are Remember Me option activated. If I open all those sites with Internet Explorer then I have no problem. If I open with My Browser then I have to login to the sites.
Is there any option that to ask the browser to search for the cookies?
thanks
