Hi,
I tried the below code and it does not show the password in the
textbox. Any thoughts?
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Put user code to initialize the page here
Dim cUsername, cPassword As String
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
If Not Request.Cookies("cUsername") Is Nothing Then
cUsername = Request.Cookies("cUsername").Value
TextBox1.Text = cUsername
End If
If Not Request.Cookies("cPassword") Is Nothing Then
cPassword = Request.Cookies("cPassword").Value
ViewState("OrigPassword") = cPassword
TextBox2.Text = ViewState("OrigPassword")
End If
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e
As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim cUsername, cPassword As String
If Request.Cookies("cUsername") Is Nothing Then
Dim cNewUsernameCookie As New HttpCookie("cUsername",
TextBox1.Text)
cNewUsernameCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(5)
Response.Cookies.Add(cNewUsernameCookie)
Else
Response.Cookies("cUsername").Value = TextBox1.Text
Response.Cookies("cUsername").Expires =
DateTime.Now.AddDays(5)
End If
If Request.Cookies("cUsername") Is Nothing Then
Dim cNewPasswordCookie As New HttpCookie("cPassword",
TextBox2.Text)
cNewPasswordCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(5)
Response.Cookies.Add(cNewPasswordCookie)
Else
Response.Cookies("cPassword").Value = TextBox2.Text
Response.Cookies("cPassword").Expires =
DateTime.Now.AddDays(5)
End If
End Sub
