COOKIES HELL - ASP.NET

Rinus

There is NO EASY method for detecting wheter a user has cookies enabled or
not. NONE.
There are solutions, but I call them workarounds, which is something I, as a
webdeveloper, dont like.

It is not unreasonable, that if cookies are critical to your app that you
clearly outline that to your clients and tell them that they need to have
cookies enabled to use your application.

If however you can write your app in such a way that cookies are not
absolutely required, then you should probably do that.

Web development is chock full of workarounds. Give the industry
another 10 years to figure it out.

What is the method you are using ? Writing/reading ? At first sight this one
looks quite simple ?!
