I am practicing Cookies in .NET. Its working fine but when I want to
clear my cookies, the statement,
Response.Cookies.Clear
does not work. What gives?
Here's what I do:
(1) Login page
There's a "Remember me on this computer checkbox". When the user
presses the login button, I do this:
Sub btnLogin_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
if chkRemember.Checked = True Then
Dim ckUserName As HttpCookie = new HttpCookie("UserName")
ckUserName.value = Trim(txtUserName.Text)
ckUserName.Expires = System.DateTime.Now.AddYears(4)
Response.Cookies.Add(ckUserName)
ckUserName = Nothing
Dim ckPassword As HttpCookie = new HttpCookie("Password")
ckPassword.value = Trim(txtPassword.Text)
ckPassword.Expires = System.DateTime.Now.AddYears(4)
Response.Cookies.Add(ckPassword)
ckPassword = Nothing
End If
Response.Redirect("AnotherPage.aspx")
End Sub
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
if Not (Request.Cookies("UserName") Is Nothing And _
Request.Cookies("Password") Is Nothing) Then
Response.Redirect("AnotherPage.aspx")
End If
End Sub
(2) AnotherPage.aspx
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
If Not (Request.Cookies("UserName") Is Nothing And _
Request.Cookies("Password") Is Nothing) Then
Dim StrUserName As String =
Request.Cookies("UserName").value.ToString
Response.Write("Welcome, " & StrUserName & "!")
Response.Write("<br/><p>If you are not " & StrUserName & ",
then click <a href='ClearCookies.aspx'>here</a>.</p>")
Else
Response.Write("You are a cookieless bastard.")
End If
End Sub
(3) ClearCookies.aspx
Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
Response.Cookies.Clear
Response.Redirect("index.aspx")
End Sub
