I am trying to quickly develop a little module (C#) to store a value from a dropdown in a cookie.

I have the module done and installed successfully and its been added to a page successfully.

The code behind the 'OnClick' for the button is just:


I have the Cookies window open in FireFox so I can monitor the cookie live. I can see it being created and the values being correct (including the expiry), however, as soon as I navigate away from the page with the module on or even just refresh the page the cookie content/expiry gets cleared and is then nothing. The cookie itself remains but the content/expiry is cleared.

Am I missing something here? Should I be using something from the DNN framework itself to generate/manage cookies?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Liam

Fixed!

A mistake on my part caused this... *sigh*

I was trying to display the cookie results in a skin too. Didn't think it was relevant hence not including that in the original description but it turns out it was VERY relevant.

Anyways, to just display the cookie contents I was using:



When I should have been using:


Using 'Response' meant that each time the page loaded it reset the cookie values.

Anyways, my mistake but at least I got to learn from it and read into 'HttpOnly' etc. which does seem to be very important.
