create a sniffer page. usually the first page on your site. have it set a
cookie than redirect to another page that checks if the cookie value exists.
you can aso check for javascript the same way.

If you're trying to determine whether the browser supports cookies, you can
use the following statement from you ASPX page:

bool bSupportsCookie s = Request.Browser .Cookies;

If you're trying to determine whether the client has their security settings
set to allow cookies, I don't know of a way to do that since that is a
client-side setting.

Hi, I searched around everywhere on the net, but could not find a simple example of detecting if cookies are enabled - on server side, and without moving from one page to another. This should be a very basic functionality, so I am reluctant to believe that there's no way to simply test it in a server-side script. Anyone? Thx, Agoston

I'm trying to write JavaScript code to test whether cookies are enabled by writing a cookie and then reading its value. My code works fine in Firefox, but it's not working in Internet Explorer 6. I have my privacy settings set to block all cookies, but my JavaScript can read and write cookies. Does this setting just block server cookies? That doesn't seem right. I can't find any other settings that deal with cookies in IE. Here's a...

I was thinking about an easy to determine if cookies are set or not in ASP. I began thinking about how the Session ID is dependent upon a cookie - right? Well, I disabled cookies in Firefox and then loaded a webpage that displayed Session.SessionID. Viola, I got one! And then, I reloaded the page. And then, I noticed that the SessionID incremented by one! This still isn't yet a one-page method of detecting if cookies are enabled or not...

Hi All, Does anyone know if it is possible to detect if a user has SSL enabled in their browser? I have a login page that is https but if the user does not have SSL enabled it of course just gives them a page cannot be displayed message.

I'm already doing this to verify their browser, if...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
