I need a simple app that just reads a cookie from the users cookie folder and then displays that cookie on a form. Now i would like for the form to update everytime the cookie changes but we can get to that.This is not an ASP application just simple VB.the cookie that is being written is called testcookie and the value is 999.what I am having difficulty with is how to find and refrence the cookie from the users desktop.
Can I get info from stored cookie on the local machine. I have a Webbrowser control in a winform, and I would like to output data from a cookie to a label or so.
I know how to read user input using textbox but it only can read character and numbers. Is it possible that I want to read user input equation?
Example:
User type A+B User put range of A and B. 1.25<A< 3.56 2.45<B< 9.87
I failed to read the equation using textbox. Is it there are other ways that can use to read equation input A+B?I am using VS2005 and VB.Net. I really new in this programming using VB.Net.
I need to access, but not display, a web page out of a VB 2005 program. The web page would be an aspx page with a query string as part of the url - with the url using values acquired thru the program - e.g. www.mysite.com?arg1=this&arg2=that
So the aspx page would produce an html output with values I need placed in specific elements. I want to read that page from my app and do stuff with the resulting values.
I'm having problems writing an If statement because it's asking for the value of a cookie, but it's possible that the cookie could be null which breaks the page.
Here's the code:If Request.Cookies("myCookie").Value = "1234" then'do stuff End If
I think i need an elegant way of say "If myCookie is not null and has a value of..."
[Code]...
Basically the cases are always going to be the same but it will select the case from one of 2 places depending on whether myCookie has a value. Since there may be quite a few cases is there anyway I can get away with only listing them once.?
I have to store, in 2 cookie dictionary/keyed cookie, a user's preference for hiding certain sections of each form on the app. It would appear that IE7 has reached some limit for the number or size of the cookie in javascript. I mean that the cookies are only inaccessible on the client-side js, but can be read just fine in our asp.net/vb code-behind.
The functions that need to read the value of these cookies must be on client side because I can't run a postback everytime the function needs to update the cookie. How should I go about getting and setting the cookie without triggering postback? I thought about storing the value of the cookie onload in a textbox, but I don't know when I would read it back and update the cookie.
I create a cookie and it has the proper expiry set, but when I go to update the cookie and check it with the debugger the expiry is gone.
' Cookie Helper: Updates cookie with the selected source ids Protected Sub UpdateCookieFor(ByVal cookieName As String, ByVal sourceIds As String) ' Update cookie if it exists
I have a series of product pages and all I'd like to do is store the last 5 products viewed in a cookie so it can be displayed as a site-history. The problem I have isn't adding the five initial items to the cookie, its when they view 6, 7 or 10 items.Currently I have this flawed logic (i have replaced the cookie name (xxx) for brevity);
Dim i As Integer = 0 Dim productcount As Integer = 0 If HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies("xxx") Is Nothing Then Dim gingernuts As New HttpCookie("xxx")
In my VB.NET code behind, I've created a multiple name/value pair cookie like this:
Dim UserCookie As HttpCookie = New HttpCookie("UserInfo") UserCookie.Values.Add("UserNumber", Me.UserNumber.Text) UserCookie.Values.Add("Password", Me.Password.Text) UserCookie.Values.Add("UserName", Me.UserName.ToString) Response.Cookies.Add(UserCookie)
Now, what I need to do (somehow) is read that 'UserInfo' cookie in javascript and be able to extract those values at will. Most of what I'm finding out there doesn't quite do what I need to do.I'm trying to do something like this:
var MyValue = ReadCookie("UserInfo", "UserName")
And MyValue would equal whatever the user had typed into the textbox.
I need to send a cookie along with every GET request in VB.NET? I already searched for codes but I can't find something that works for me. Can someone give me a simple code to do this?
I have a login link that fires a javascript function that calls a logout page.This is what the logout page consists of:[code]Originally I just had cookies.clear in there, but that wasn't working.The jQuery function $.cookie does not work either. The cookie is set by ASP.NET, so I figured I could unset it with ASP.NET too but apparently not.
have looped through the cookies in the cookiejar and they appear to hold the correect values i need, the thing is i need to be able to use the cookie value outside the for each i did:
Dim cookie1 As String Dim cookie2 As String For Each tempCookie As Cookie In GETResponse.Cookies
We have a number of classic ASP websites using a VB6 DLL (COM) object for their functionality in the standard way. The DLL is regsvr32'd and the pages use Server.CreateObject to create an instance of the necessary object in the DLL, which in turn triggers the OnStartPage function of the object being created, passing in the ScriptingContext which we then use to get Request(querystring, form) information, read/update session information and read/write cookie information (etc). For clarification, the way you update/store a cookie value using ScriptingContext is
objSC.Response.Cookies(Key) = Value
In preperation of doing a complete .Net overhaul on the code base (and as a first step), we ran the code through the .Net 2008 VB upgrade tool, which makes a few minor code changes, sets up references to interop libraries (for ADODB, ASPTypeLibrary, CDO, etc) and adds the necessary attributes to allow the .Net object to be exposed to COM, and after a few tweaks here and there guided by comments (todos) left by the upgrade tool, the code is compilable except for anything that tried to update/store a cookie using the above code as now, through the ASPTypeLibrary (Interop), the Response.Cookies collection is readonly (with no obvious way to write a cookie now).
If I comment out the offending line of code, the code compiles, and all I need to do is register this new .Net DLL (and it's interop DLLs) in the GAC, use regasm to register it through COM and the classic ASP sites continue working as if nothing happened (except for writing cookies), using Server.CreateObject to create what it thinks is a COM object, triggering the call to OnStartPage, passing in the ScriptingContext.So although the code base is "upgraded" to .Net it is using a lot of interop libraries to continues working as before, including using the ASPTypeLibrary.ScriptingContext object, as this is what the classic ASP pipeline exposes. how to write/store a cookie in this scenario?
I want to cast a String into a Cookie and add it into a cookiecontainer. For example if I had Dim cookieString As String = "variable1=hello&variable2=goodbye" Dim myCookieContainer As CookieContainer myCookieContainer.Add(cookieString.Parse(Cookie)) Something along those lines.
I am having an issue with a cookie that keeps getting deleted by the application. When you go into the application, if the cookie does not exist, it gets created. This works fine and everything in the cookie is stored correctly. When I click on a link to go to another page, once everything loads completely, the cookie gets deleted from the file system. Even stranger than that, the values from the cookie remain until the browser is closed. That is the application appears to be retaining the values even though the cookie does not exist on the local file system. The next time you enter the application, the cookie is recreated so any values stored are lost.Now, I have done some tweaking on the code to see what could be causing it. I found that I am adding the cookie to the Response object any time I make a change to the cookie. The cookie is also being added to the Response object when the page load is completed. My initial thought was that adding the cookie multiple times to the Response object could be causing the issue. I commented out the code in the page load complete event and the cookie hung around until the next postback. Then I put in some logic to keep the application from putting the cookie into the Response object more than once, and then I lost the cookie again at the same point as before.All of the code for handling cookies is in my "base page" that all pages inherit from. The page that seems to be loosing the cookie is my search page. I am including the code from both of those pages.[code]
Using vb.net 2003 asp.net 1.1 sql server2005My cookie expiration is in 2059 after I set it for 1 Month and alsothe user data didn't return, also the cookie path is just a slash, I'musing LocalHost though.I'm using a ticket, I used just a cookie before and the cookie alsowas set to expire at 2059 after I set it for a year.
In my program you log into a MySQL database. I want to create cookie on the users machine and I want it to stay there until they press the "Logout" button. The cookie is there so that the program can constantly check to see if the cookie exists which will tell the program that user is online. How can I create a cookie?
Heres all the code I have so far:
Dim scenerymanageraccount As New System.Web.HttpCookie("scenerymanageraccount")
I have the following method that creates a cookie in the page's response. Immediately after I create the cookie, I checked to see what the value was and it was blank. Is this normal behavior? How can I check the response for a cookie after it has been added?
When I monitor the HTTP response, the cookie is there. When I use the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar to view the cookie, it is there. However, it doesnt appear to be present in the Response.Cookies collection. How do I access it?
Dim c As New HttpCookie("prpg") c.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddYears(10) c.Value = value
I have a customer intranet (ASP.NET / VB) thats instantiating an asp.net session checking various things in the dblogin process. The Intranet has various sub-systems.The marketing sub-system requires an app_role to be assigned to the Intranet user for them to view the section.I need to create a new booking form for this section but the code appears to use a generic form which is use throughout the site in various other sections. So its not a good idea to ammend what is currently there.Create a new application in C# / ASP.NET and also in IIS. (rather than a new site, create an app within the Intranet site in IIS)Will I be able to check for the session thats currenting set in the cookie?If the session is open then the user is able to see the Intranet and I assume I will need to do some checks for the app_role too.I am simply going to put the URL for the app in the menu for marketing and then do another check just incase someone gives the URL to someone who doesnt have access to the menu.Will i be able to check and use the cookie thats been instantiated by another application?
is it possible to use stored Chrome cookies in VB.NET?
I need to periodically check certain data on a webpage that requires login. I know I can login with Internet Explorer first and then later use the stored Internet Explorer cookie in my application to visit that webpage.
The problem is that I use Chrome to browse that website. When I first login with IE in order to check the data with my application and then browse the website manually with Chrome, the Chrome cookie is suddenly invalid. Then I need to login with Chrome, but then the IE cookie is suddenly invalid again and my application can't check the data anymore.
So, it's not possible to browse the website (logged in with Chrome) and periodically check the data in the background (logged in with IE) at the same time.
I really do not want to use IE to browse that website. The only way to make this work properly, is if I could use the stored Chrome cookie in my application, instead of the IE cookie.
