Thanks for answering, here's the code:
<cfquery name="getAUTH" datasource="im" dbtype="ODBC">
SELECT userlastvisited FROM users WHERE username='#form.username#' AND
userPASSWORD='#form.userpassword#'</cfquery>
<cfif getAUTH.recordcount eq 1>
<cfcookie name="lastvisited" value="#getAUTH.userlastvisited#" expires="14">
I didn't quite understand what you meant on the cookies/pages idea but I
also tried
to relocate right after setting the cookie to:
<script>location.href='/download/vamp.html'</script>
and from that page, automaticlly back to:
<script>location.href='/sectionthatneedscookie/index.cfm'</script>
just for checking, and still - it didn't work.
Thanks alot for trying thou, got any more tips??
Michael.
