Hi,

A cookie is often used to identify a user. A cookie is a small file that the server embeds on the user's computer. Each time the same computer requests a page with a browser, it will send the cookie too. With ASP, you can both create and retrieve cookie values.

The "Response.Cookies" command is used to create cookies.

Note: The Response.Cookies command must appear BEFORE the html tag.

In the example below, we will create a cookie named "firstname" and assign the value "Alex" to it:

<%
Response.Cookies("firstname")="Alex"
%>

It is also possible to assign properties to a cookie, like setting a date when the cookie should expire:

<%
Response.Cookies("firstname")="Alex" 
Response.Cookies("firstname").Expires=#June 10,2008#
%>

Thanks
