um...you do understand that client and session variables rely on cookies, right? specifically, CFID and CFTOKEN.

DON'T USE COOKIES. They are unreliable and they don't have a good rep. Either use session variables or client variables. Robert Everland III Web Developer Dixon Ticonderoga -----Original Message----- From: Powers, Bonnie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2000 2:45 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: I have a question about Cookies and SSL on Netscape. I have almost finished my shopping cart, but when my users were testing, there was a problem. It seems that Netscape won't allow pages on the SSL part of the server to use the Cookies generated by the non-SSL section of the server. Everything works OK in IE. Directory structure webroot racbp(beginning of shopping cart) 1.cfm 2.cfm 3.cfm ... application.cfm(writes two cookies Customer_ID and Order_ID) secure racbp(secure section of shoppingcart) 4.cfm 5.cfm 6.cfm 1. I thouhgt that I could just move the application.cfm to the webroot directory, but then what do i do when I need to write another application that would have the same problem.... 2. I could put the entire shopping cart app in the SSL folder 3. I could pass the Cookies as variables from page 3.cfm to page 4.cfm anf have page 4 write cookies from the SSl server. Then I will have to identical sets of cookie and I will have to delete them twice. 4. Every CF developer must have the same problem and there must be an industry standard fix... but I don't know what it is which is why I am contacting you. Any help would be much appreciated, Bonnie ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
