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" : "");
Code:
I have setting some cookies to track visitors to my site. I have my pages in folder music and in sub folders. I can access my site by typing: [url] So the domain will be: [url] and the path: /sara/music/
But the broblem is that other cookies are attached to my cookieby going to [url] or any link in it.
Is the problem from setting the path? If not how can I filter my cookie so i can just display my cookies only, I use one function to display all the cookies.
My Cookie Editor is contiained in a single "javascript:" link, and utilizes FireFox's ability to use really long URLs (over 4k chars).
The script does not work in IE. I had originaly coded a cross browser version, but after 500 or so characters IE stops executing the script.
I have posted a working example on the web at:
www.vortexcortex.com/tools/cookie/ (http://www.vortexcortex.com/tools/cookie/)
Features:
Modify cookie values for any site you want
Support for secure cookies
Create New cookies
Delete cookies
Session Only or Persistant cookies
Escape and Unescape cookie values for easier editing
Here is the HTML / Javascript source:

YEAH NO HECKLING FROM THE PEANUT GALLERY.[code]...

i've got a multi-language site, where the home-page of each language group
features a link to a popup window that offers background info on site
management. the popup is fired by a javascript function, when they click
the site management link. there's also a "window close" function button so
they can nuke it as they please.
now, oddly, people who search for my site in the chinese language on google,
are sent directly to the site management popup window, which of course,
opens in their "full" browser window, and which also has no links back to
the main site, because it's meant to open only as an "accessory" to the main
site.
my question is this: is there any way, with Javascript, that I could
determine if they arrived at this window from "off-site" (ie, a google
search), and therefore offer such "off-site" visitors a link back to the
principal site, a link that would be hidden for visitors who clicked the
popup window from my own site?
Basically, I registered for a free board at one of the various sites because my server doesn't support .cgi scripts. I want to know if there is a way to have the data from a form on my site post to the board site -A user would fill in my form, click submit, and a new post would appear on the board site -as if they had entered it there.
If you can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful. Here is my thinking.
A) I can't locate the script that they use to perform a "submit"; so I thought I might enter their <head> data (as far as xmlns, href, etc) in my <head>; that my website might call up their script files, css sheets, etc.
B)I could code my own Javascript function to send my form data to their site. If I knew how to simulate a mouseclick on someone else's site, I could have the script "click" there, paste the data, and hit the submit button. But I don't.
C) I could size their site down to the form itself and put it in a frame on my page
Option C is clearly easier, but I would prefer option A or B. I have time and will happily do the research myself; provided that I know if approach A or B is even feasible.
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 am about to write my first javascript for a Login "remember me
cookie"...but i will say i am not sure of what method?
i dont want to save user id and password.....
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.
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 use Javascript cookies in a web application with a command like this
document.cookie = NameOfCookie + "=" + escape(value) +
((expiredays == null) ? "" : "; expires=" + ExpireDate.toGMTString());
But it does not work in some cases that I dont understand ...
Some know how can i pull out a none English string from a cookie?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
I'm trying to write a Javascript program that adds numbers by using cookies. Here is my code:

I have been redesigning my Site. To offer the user to change the background color. this is passed from page to page with the use of cookies. In my redesign I also need to images and bg images to be passed from page to page but don't quite know how to go about it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a friend that needs help. They emailed me and said they notice that when there site is in a frame from another site, the cookies do not work. The email prompt pops up even if the person has already set a cookie. If you input an email address it still comes back with null. Do you know why it cannot read the email cookie from within another site, but works fine from his site.
Anyone know what to chnage in this script to fix this?
I really like this script http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/navigate2.htm
however, I can't seem to find a script that uses cookies for a long period of time, instead of just for browser sessions.
Is there any way someone could help me on this and make the script use longer cookies for so many days.
There are a lot of extremely smart members here, so I thought if the knowledge is out there, this would be the place to tap into it. I have included the code below that I am working with. What I want is for a person to enter their name and room number and coffee preference. Then a cookie will store that information and tell them a cup will be sent to them at their room. When the page is loaded again their preference will be remembered and they will be offered a discount for their favorite coffee. This is part of a self taught book I am studying.
Most of it works, but I think the selection of coffee from the radio button is not being stored in the cookie, or at least I can not recall it. I was also wondering if there was some way that I could combine the makeCookie and welcome functions so that there would only be one button to click on the page. Code:
