View 8 RepliesCookie is not deleted if another browser remained opened even the current one is closed. I also include the code to get the cookie expired . But it only works properly when user closes all browsers.
View 2 RepliesI am busy building a shopping cart with cookies. I have datalist which I populate from the cookies with a delete button next to each cookie
[Code]....
Now the problem is that when I hit the delete / remove button to expire the cookie, what happens when repopulating the datalist is that it shows the original cookie with all it's values as well as a new entry where all the values are blank.
I have an ASP.NET page that has a wizard control. I need to see if the same user is working on the page so I first time I insert a record and next time I update database records. I am using Session.SessionID to check if the same user is working on the page, but on every postback, SessionID gives a unique string and always the "insert" construct executes.
What is the best way to check the same user is working back and forth on the same page. User is not logged in, its an open form on the page.
I need to set ASP.NET_SessionId in order to dowload a file from server.
I use the following code
IContextChannel mychannel = (IContextChannel)myService;
using (OperationContextScope scope = new OperationContextScope(mychannel))
{
res = myService.DoSomething();
System.ServiceModel.Channels.MessageProperties messageProperties = ......
I'd like that when a user logoff or his session expires, tha SessionID is no longer valid.
I've found the way to do it when the user logoff, simply doing:
[Code]....
But I don't know how to do it when the session has expired. Apparently, if the session has expired and the browser tries again to connect, the same SessionID will be recycled, and I want the server issues a new one, how can I do it?
I'm storing the session IDs of the logged-in users in a database, so I need to kill some sessions using the session Ids stored in the database, but unfortuently I'm not able to get any session using the seesion ID so that I can kill it.
View 1 RepliesI have ASP page that host an ASP.NET page in iframe. When I test this in FireFox all work ok but when I use IE the ASP.NET page is creating a new sessionID for each request. it only work if I change the IE Privacy settings allow session cookies .
View 3 RepliesI want to change the value in a cookie:
HttpCookie hc = new HttpCookie("HiddenColumns");
hc.Value = customView.HiddenFields;
hc.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(365);
Response.SetCookie(hc);
Or this way:
Response.Cookies["HiddenColumns"].Value = customView.HiddenFields;;
Response.Cookies["HiddenColumns"].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(365);
But when I retrieve the cookie value, it is still old, unless I do postback. I don't want to use Redirect.
I need to insert a SessionID into a database (along with other values). I'm getting the session ID simply by using Session.SessionID.
To test this, I've just assigned this to the text property of a label in a page.
Whenever I hit F5, the SessionId in the Label changes.
It is my understanding that the Session Id should remain the same until the browser is closed.
Am I wrong?
I need the SessionID linked to this browser session - a value which remains static until the browser is closed.
Normally, when my server gets an invalid sessionID on the url it rewrites it. However (several?) search engine(s) are sending requests to my server with a lower case in the session number, where there is normally an upper case S. So for example
(s(vou3fq454gk3fbrncrmk1bmj)) will not just rewrite the sessionID and keep going, but
(S(vou3fq454gk3fbrncrmk1bmj)) WILL rewrite the sessionID and keep going without an error.
This is filling up my database and making it hard for me to use it effectively, plus, I would just like it to work.
Is there any way for it is not care if that first '(s(' is lower case? Or is there a way for IIS to cope with this in an efficient manner?
How to get rid of Session.sessionID when abandoning the session?
Scenario : I abandon a session and create a new session again. This time the sessionID generated remains the same as earlier.
I hav a problem where I wanted to share session state between main page and subdomain page (example between [URL]. Naturally, in this case, the webserver will give me a different session id because the session id is bound to the domain.
But how can i override the sessionid of my main page when I come back to it?
I have my Web site set up to use SQL Server session state. This works fine. When a session starts, a row is created in ASPStateTempSessions.
When the user logs off the application, I am trying to call the stored procedure TempRemoveStateItem to clean up after myself (not sure if this is the right way to do it or not).
What I noticed is that the SQL table's SessionID column contains 32 characters whereas the .NET Session.SessionID value only contains 24 characters (which match the first 24 characters of the 32 characters stored in the SQL table). Because the values do not match, the stored procedure always fails.
Why would the SessionID value differ between .NET and SQL?
I'm using the following line of code to display the number of users currently logged on:
lblNoOfUsers.Text = Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline().ToString()
I'm still debugging my application so it's on the local server. As I debug and stop then debug again, eventually lblNoOfUsers.text turns to "0" instead of "1", even as I'm navigating my application. It only turns to "1" again if I log out and sign back in. It's almost as though Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline my login are referencing two different session states. How is this possible? Does asp.net create a new session state cookie each time I start debugging?
i have trouble about cookie path: I use VS 2005, code as:
HttpCookie aCookie = new HttpCookie("lastVisit");
aCookie.Value = DateTime.Now.ToString();
aCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(30);
aCookie.Path = "/TestCookie";
Response.Cookies.Add(aCookie);
Seem that , i can't get value cookie,although my variable on page which inside TestCookie folder I try get cookie other pages which outside TestCookie folder ! Result is like before attempts.
We are using asp.net and 3.5 framework. I have a process that sets the value of a cookie named "mystaffid" in the Default.aspx code behind page. This holds the unique ID of the internal user (intranet). Now when I leave one of the web pages to go to another page in the same website I am getting the error "Input string was not in a correct format. " on the 3rd line below. how the cookie disappears? Also, this is happening in the Page_Load of the master page and I am doing the exact same thing in other pages with the same master page and not getting the error. The cookie is set to expire in 1 day when it is set in Default.aspx.
Dim intStaffID As Int32 = 0
If Not Request.Cookies("mystaffid") Is Nothing Then
intStaffID = Convert.ToInt32(Request.Cookies("mystaffid").Value)
End If
We have a local homepage, which connect to our production security environment. When I need to test my site in test environment, I need to get fresh cookie (not the one that was sent to me via production security service, when I opened IE with local homepage).
I am getting fresh cookie fine in Mozilla; but in IE I always have production cookie, and this disables my testing. What I should fix here?
I'm using session to store C# object but my session is expiring regularly.
I've given 540 minutes for session timeout. ( <sessionState mode="InProc" timeout="540"/>)
Now I want to use cookie instead of session to remove this timeout problem.
code below:

I want to make a cookie that contains a list and then i want to be able to get the information from the list by entering the list items specific key value. I quickly made a test application to see if it works or not and the code that im posting below is Not working

Very new to ASP.NET and C# (somewhat knowledgable in PHP) I have an ASP.NET web application and need to manage access to pages based on a 'status' stored in a cookie. I would like to use the following code to create the cookie in a login method.
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("UserCookie");
cookie.Value = "status"; <-- this will be replaced with a variable once its working
cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddHours(1);
Response.SetCookie(cookie);
My problem is that the only place I can put this code where it works is in the global.asax Session_Start method. It simply doesn't work anywhere else. I am checking the cookie creation in firefox options and see the ASP.NET_SessionId created but nothing else (This is all running on localhost).
Is the session status somehow interfering with the cookie creation? Do I need to configure something in Web.config? It would appear that the only time I can create a cookie is on Session_Start. Does anyone have any tips, perhaps I am missing something simple?
I am developing a asp.net 3.5 web site. Cookie is used to store username when site user logins in the site.This works well on my local computer when I'm debugging it with Visual Studio.But when I publish the site and upload it to the server, cookie could not store username.
My code is as below:
//Write COOKIES
HttpCookie loginState = new HttpCookie("loginState",email);
Response.Cookies.Add(loginState);[code]....
I have a website of online games and I try to count and show the number of the uniqe visitor per game page, by using Cookies only. (if someone visit after 24hr it will be uniqe visitor too)
the problems is:sometimes (I don't know why), not always, it's update the counter colomn of the game, +2 instead +1, and I don't know why, there isn't any "for loop" etc.. maybe is't because the url rewrite? but it work fine if people enter again the colomn will not update again, the problem is that is update +2 instead +1 (see the code at the bottom)this is my algorithm (something is wrong in this algorithm so don't use it):
1. put the query string in variable (the name of the game) - i'm using url rewite.
2. use this variable for select the game Name (and another information) from the database (and for the cookie I will use the game name from the database and not from the query string to avoid from capital letter problems, because cappital letter for the first word isn't good because words like of, to etc..).
3. for each pageload (there isn't postback in the game page) check if the cookie of the uniqe game exists
4. if not exists, create a cookie for the unique game (the name of the cookie and the his value will be same, because I don't care about it, it's only for check if the cookie exist, and I can't use one cookie for all the games because each time visitor enter the cookie will create for 1 day).
4. after this creation of the cookie try to find if the cookie exist (for cheaking if the user didn't disable the option for cookies)
5. if yes update the database column of the spesific game
the code:
In the end of the page_load - (the GameName is the virable of the name of the game from the database and not from the qury string).
[Code]....
and the update function

Our app uses session to keep track of users. We stuff their user id into session on logon. If the browser cache is cleared any refresh to the page is done then the user will see the log out sign - as the app cant get theuser id from session as the aspnet_session cookie wont be present in the request.Firefox works correctly but when I clear the cache on i.e. the session is maintained. The session ID's are the same for multiple requests.how I can debug the app to see what cookies its getting. How do I look at the actual cookie that is passed to .net?
View 2 RepliesI had an xml-serialization which worked fine, but as I have just knew it doesn't work in Opera browser. I think, it's security rules don't allow to write to cookies xml-content.What can I do? Can I use binary serialization or something else?
