Unable to read cookie value

[ramuksasi]

Hi,

I am unable to read a cookie value from the cookies. i have set cookie value from javascript in scripting side and try to read cookie value from coding part ie. default.aspx.vb . i have shown my javascript page below:

<pre lang="cs">function setcookie()
   {
   var today=new Date();
   var expire=new Date();
   var ndays;
   if(ndays==null || ndays==0)ndays=1;
   expire.setTime(today.getTime() + 3600000*24*nDays);
document.cookie = "hostname"+"="+VIH_HostName+ ";expires=&"+expire.toGMTString();
alert(VIH_HostName)
}</pre>

this function called from onload in body tag.

here is my vb code to read cookie value

<pre lang="vb">If Not Request.Cookies("hostname") Is Nothing Then
                           count = Request.Cookies("hostname").Value
                           Response.Write("cookie: " & count)
                     End If</pre>

If I read the cookie I get only null string.. anyone help me to resolve this problem..

regards

I don't see any JavaScript code posted.
I see something that looks like JavaScript but... it isn't valid and it isn't within <script type="javascrip t"> tags.

Are you seeing JavaScript errors in your browser?
