I'm an aged mainframe programmer struggling with cookies on a web server with Microsoft Frontpage extentions.
I have no choice over the architecture or tools available to me. I'm trying to do something and I'm not winning.
I have used a script called "only popup once" on a web page with no problems and I'm trying to adapt it. I want the popup window to be a 'feedback form' and when the form is completed it goes to a "thank you" page. I want the Thank you page to update the cookie tested by the main page.
I built the individual pages and visited them manually and all was well - going to 'main' page caused survey to pop up. Visit 'thank you' page manually updated the cookie and subsequent visits to 'main' did not pop the survey up.
The problem is that the main page creates a cookie called
"cookie:username@intranet...../" but when I get to the thank you page via the feedback form, a different cookie gets created "cookie:username@intranet...../_vit_bin/shtml.dll/"
So the question is how do I make the script in the thank you page reference and update the cookie created in the main page?
Thanks.
