Ajax, Cookies, Authentication.
Jan 31, 2007
I am building a form where registered users will put their employment histories. Each employment history will need to be associated with an employer ID, which is in my database. Instead of having tons of page reloads as users enter each employer in their histories, I figured I'd use Ajax to do it much more quickly.
Then I realized that I wasn't sure if Ajax sent the user's cookie to the server and if it didn't, then I wouldn't be able to tell what the person's authentication status is, what they have access to (only their own records), etc.
So I would like to know if Ajax sends cookies to the server. And if not, is it possible to send the cookie to the server with the Ajax request so I can ensure that people are adding and deleting from their own profiles only?

I have been trying to find some kind of authentication method or
script (PHP/perl/javascript or other) to achieve the following, with
no luck.
Say there are 100 files at a site. A person can choose which file to
download from a list, and to do so has to enter a code or password.
When a valid code or password is used they are redirected to a page
with a direct link to download the file.
Once that code or password has been used to download that one file
(and the same code/password can be used to access any one of the 100
files), it is then expired/deleted/made invalid and can't be used
again to download any other file.

I'm using XHR to make some REST requests. Right now I need to handle HTTP 401 responses.When a resource is requested such as a Javascript file or CSS file the browser will popup a prompt for username and password, which is normal behaviour.When I make an XHR request for POST,GET or PUT I get an XHR response which includes a status of 401 and no popup from the browser, this is also normal.The problem is when I make a DELETE request, I get the expected XHR response AND also the browser still pops up the username and password prompt.

I have this following strange problem on Firefox.
When i try to request something from the HTTP server, the http server
throws a authentication dialog box, where i need to enter the username
and password.
My problem is I don't see the dialog box coming in, the moment i
request the page....sometimes it comes ....sometimes it
doesnt......and when i click on the refresh button repeatedly .... it
comes after may be 5-6 tries.... one the server side i see the
following with every request.
"[3041766304] HTTPServer::authenticate: Returning WWW-Authenticate:
Basic realm="
I also tried to set the browser.cache.check_doc_frequency parameter to
1 and 2 ....still the problem persists..

A client of mine is trying to integrate one of his Web systems with my system. In an essence, he wants to embed my system's web UI into his "master" web page, and display it in a sub-frame whenever a user requests my system display.My system (JBoss AS) has Basic Authentication enabled. So if a user attempts to access my system he/she is prompted to provide username/password. If correct credentials are provided, then user is allowed access to my system / web pages.Now, the client is trying to automate the login. He wants to provide the login information automatically, through JavaScript in his master page (this is needed so that users of his system don't provide any credentials - all user/pwd information is passed under the curtains).What is wrong in the approach above and do you know if there is a better way to properly implement this seamless logging (knowing that Basic Authentication is the only option)?

A bit of a lame request - I just don't have a lot of time to look it up. I need a script to login to a website (outside my domain) and then make a very simple web request. How do I go about doing that?

I am sending a url request to the network using jquery.get(). The problem I am facing is that the server is having an http authentication, so when i pass the request url directly on the browser, it will show the authentication window and i can pass the username and password, but what to do when i am passing the same request using get() method.
This is what i am using currently
Anybody knows a work around for this problem, which can be used for every browser. the current error code is 401..

For all those "Cookie Problems" posts that are flooding this Forum:
function cookie(name,value)
{ this.name = name;
this.value = value;
this.attributes = new Array();
this.expiresIn = function (days)
{ expiration = new Date();
expiration.setTime(expiration.getTime() + (days*86400000));
this.attributes["expires"] = expiration.toGMTString();
};
this.set = function ()
{ var cookiestr = this.name + "=" + escape(this.value);
for(attr in this.attributes)
{ cookiestr += "; " + attr
if(this.attributes[attr].length > 0)
cookiestr += "=" + this.attributes[attr];
}
document.cookie=cookiestr;
};
this.erase = function()
{ this.expiresIn(-1);
this.set();
delete cookies[this.name];
};
}
function cookieContainer()
{ this.add=function (name,value)
{ this[name]=new cookie(name,value);
};
this.get=function (name)
{ for(o in this)
if(o == name)
return this[o];
return null;
}
var cstr=document.cookie;
var spaces=/s/gi;
cstr=cstr.replace(spaces,'');
while(cstr.length>0)
{ cequal=cstr.indexOf("=");
if(cequal==-1) cequal=cstr.length;
var name=cstr.substring(0,cequal);
cstr=cstr.substring(cequal+1,cstr.length);
cend=cstr.indexOf(";");
if(cend==-1) cend=cstr.length;
var value=unescape(cstr.substring(0,cend));
cstr=cstr.substring(cend+1,cstr.length);
this.add(name,value);
}
}
var cookies = new cookieContainer();

If I create a cookie in PHP here.
setcookie('cookie_cl_'.$client_id, 'cookie_cl_'.$client_id, $time, "/","", 0);
the php script is set on domain B
the javascript I want to read the cookie is set on domain B as well
However, the
hosted on DOMAIN A <script src=domain B .js>
I want the cookie to remain on domain B, but if I open the JS file using domain A, both php and JS are using domain B, though I can't seem to get the JS to find the cookie, is it looking at domain A ?
am I suppose to set a domain on cookie for this to work?

I need to set two cookies. One to be used for redirection and page loading,
which i have now and works and a second one that is used to write
information on a page.
Both are to be set automatically when loading the page. The second will
will set a company name like "Your company name". Then when the next page
is loaded it will put "Your company name" on the webpage. And like I said
before the first cookie is set for navigation purposes.

What's the trick to sharing cookies between frames? I can set and read a
cookie in the same frame, but if I try to read the cookie in another frame
it is undefined. :o(
There are some other cookies that are available in all frames, so I know
that the frames are capable of reading cookies, just not the ones that I set
in the other frame.

Got a client with three web sites. I want to be able to pass cookies between these sites, so far no luck. Tried:
document.cookie = name + "=" + escape (value) +
((exp == null) ? "" : ("; expires=" + exp.toGMTString())) +
((path == null) ? "" : ("; path=" + path)) +
("; domain=.yorktest.com") +
((secure == true) ? "; secure" : "");

I have the code below that will retrieve a cookie that was placed by the server (ie: joes.com) that the document resides on. I want to be able to retrieve a cookie set by another server (ie: freds.com) but I want to retrieve it from a page served by joes.com. This code apparently using 'document.cookie' determines the server that the document resides on and looks for cookies from that server. Anybody know of code that will let you determine the server?
var name = "cookie";
function getCookie(name) {
var cname = name + "=";
var dc = document.cookie;
if (dc.length > 0) {
begin = dc.indexOf(cname);
if (begin != -1) {
begin += cname.length;
end = dc.indexOf(";", begin);
if (end == -1) end = dc.length;
return unescape(dc.substring(begin,
end));
}
}
return null;
}

I am using IE6 to view pages from a corporate web server through
internet, not VPN. But, the I use a webhop service, so the URL I use is
silently redirected to another place. I think this is because the
company uses dynamic IP addresses for the server.
Anyway, I am trying to use a cookie to remember user login info, but
the cookie is not working. If connect to the server through the VPN
(when I know the IP address of the server) everything works fine. So, I
am thinking that the webhop thing is causing me a problem with cookie.
Reading about the cookie I think that either the path or the domain
needs setting. Am I on the right lines here, or is it something else?

I just changed my browser settings to override automatic cookie
handling and block all third party cookies. Now I'm curious. How are
third party cookies allowed in the first place? I thought only the
domain of the web site visited could store and retrieve cookies?

I'm displaying a page outside my server inside an iframe. I want to allow whatever is inside my iframe to set cookies. The website says, sorry your browser must allow cookies. My browser allows cookies, but because its in the iframe it doesn't allow them. I've read something about changing the header? What code would I put in my page.php to allow them?

I've been trying for the last few weeks(on and off, mind you) to get this piece of code working, but to no avail.
My problem is small, but all the solutions I have tried dont seem to work.
I've googled the life out of it and got a lot of different scripts which are supposed to set the expiry date in the past and the cookie disappears.....
But none of these worked, so this is what I am left with: Code:

First and foremost, yet I have viewed w3schools explination on how to use cookies, yes I have googled around for other tutorials, and I am still not getting the cookie to set at all.
I have a quiz I set up with javascript, and when the user passes the quiz, it goes to a special webpage. I want a cookie set on with body onload for that page, and then that cookie to be checked on the body onload of the quiz page so that if the page see''s that the user has allready passed that quiz, it will just automatically redirect acordingly so the quiz won't have to be taken again. Here is my [code]...

I have a window up whose Javascript implementation checks for a cookie with code something like this:
function lookieCookie()
{
alert(document.cookie);
setTimeout(lookieCookie, 10000);
}
The first call to lookieCookie is in the onload event handler. The cookie is actually set by a PHP routine that is in another script. The PHP script certainly appears to be setting the cookie. The alerts from lookieCookie are clearely happening at the appropriate time intervals (I can't get into the room with the actual code at the moment, so if I have messed up the syntax here, I know that it is not messed up in the real code), but the cookie being set from PHP does not show up.
Obviously the PHP might be doing the wrong thing. In tha case I have to get on the guy that writes the PHP script. Should the code I wrote work even if the cookie is set after the page has loaded, but between iterations of lookieCookie()? If yes, then I must get on the PHP coder and get his page fixed.
