ASP Cookies

I’ve decided to add a new category – ASP. I don’t do much ASP coding, but my most recent project has had to be in ASP since that is the only language I can get supported. Luckily I’m getting along fine and I thought I’d post a few bits of “wisdom”. To some they may be wisdom, to some they may be “Well, Duh!” But they are things which I have spent time on and which will hopefully save you time.

So, first off, cookies in ASP/VBScript. Commented lines begin with a ‘

“” then
‘set the filter equal to the cooke value
filterVar = Request.Cookies(“teamName”)
else
‘Otherwise, leave the filter empty
filtervar = “”
end if
