Persistant cookies and non-persistant cookies.

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what exactly persistant cookies and non-persistant
cookies means.
I read some where that in non persistant cookies if i am using session
data remains in that cookies untill end of session.

But in persistant cookies, data remains in cookies until it expires.
Does it means that even if session ends data remains in cookies? If
yes what happend if i access same website again?

will it give me previously stored data?

Please correct me if i am wrong.

thanks in advance.

A peristant cookie is written to the hard drive and will expire at some
point in the future. A non-persistant one exists only while your browser is
active. If you shut the browser down the cookie is gone. ASP stores your
Session ID in a non-persistant cookie.

Your session data is not stored in the cookie itself but on the server.
Only your session ID is in the cookie.

hi, recently i discovered a memory leak in our code; after some investigation i could reduce it to the following problem: return objects of functions are handled as temporary objects, hence their dtor is called immediately and not at the end of the function. to be able to use return objects (to avoid copying) i often assign them to a const reference. now, casting a const return object from a function to a non-const reference to this...

Is it at all possible to leverage mixed-mode assemblies from AppDomains other than the default AppDomain? Is there any means at all of doing this? Mixed-mode is incredibly convenient, but if I cannot load/unload/reload extensions into my large and slow-to-load application during development without restarting the process then the disadvantages may outweigh the advantages. I've got a mixed-mode program in which I create a new AppDomain...

I need help writing a function for a program that is based upon the various operations of a matrix and I keep getting a "non-aggregate type" error. My guess is that I need to dereference my pointers, but I'm not sure. Please help. The code: void equate(matrix *A, matrix *B) { int i, j; assert(A.row_dim == B.col_dim && A.col_dim == B.col_dim); for(i=0; i < A.row_dim; i++) for(j=0; j < A.col_dim; j++)

Secure Socket Layer is very important and useful for any web application but it brings some problems too with itself. Handling navigation between secure and non-secure pages is one of the cumbersome jobs. When a non-secure page references a secure page with relative URL, the web server generates error until absolute URL with https prefix is used. On the other hand when a secure page references a non-secure page, the non-secure page will be...

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. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. 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. The idea...
