MSXML.XMLHTTP / ASP Page / Session

[Martin Waller]

Hello,

I'm using the MSXML.XMLHTTP object to obtain the results of an ASP page from
an ASP page on the same server. The problem I have is that when the AP
refrenced by the XMLHTTP object is run it does now share the session with
the calling page ? How can I solve this ?

Any ideas ?

Many thanks...

Martin

The XMLHttp component is now the "client" for your ASP page, and not the
browser.

One way to get around is to retrieve the ASPSESSIONID cookie from the
browser, and set it in your code for the XMLhttp component. This way, both
browser and the XMLHttp component are using the same ASSPSESSIONID cookie to
talk to the ASP pages, and hence maintain the session.

You should be able to do that with the

setRequestHeader method something like this (not tested, just from docs)

ck = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_COOKIE")
set xmlhttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.open "GET", url, false
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader "Cookie",ck
xmlhttp.send ""
