Maybe I don't understand cookies correctly. When some visits my site
and logs in, they get a cookie that stores their login information.
When they come back, that info is read from the cookie and they can
log in without having to remember their id/pw.
Assume the site is www.foobar.com It works as long as they browse to www.foobar.com. If they browse to foobar.com it doesn't see the
cookie. It they browse to www.foobar.com/Stuff.aspx, it doesn't see
the cookie.
What am I missing? Do I need to store the cookie differently?
Response.Cookies("CookieName").Value =
tmpObject.Text.Trim
Response.Cookies("CookieName").Expires =
DateTime.Now.AddDays(1000)
The cookie looks fine - I checked it through the browsers (IE 6 and
FireFox).
Thanks,

Hi Bill,
add Trace="true" to the @Page directive at the start of the page, then
you should see details of your cookies
<%@ Page Trace="true" ... %>
Hope this helps to find the problem
Well, there can be a problem if the path is set in anything different from
"/", There shouldn't be a problem if the path is not set at all. At the msdn
states:
If this property is not specified, then this Cookie will be sent to all
pages on the origin server or servers.

Make sure you set the Cookie's path correctly. If you want the cookie to
be visible on your whole site, you must set the path to "/".

That would mean that the default value is "/". Anyway, the symptom being
that the cookie is not visible on all pages, this rather points to a
problem with the Path.

If the path is not specified, then it defaults to '/'. And I am not
specifying it. So what's the problem?
