Chris,

        I'm not quite sure what error you are having (am I missing something from
the post???)...but if the problem is with the JavaScript alert not coming
up, try using ParameterExists(...) rather than IsDefined(...).

HTH,
David

Subject: The darndest time w/ Cookies. Actually form checking.


I apologize if this ends up getting posted a couple times.   I haven't seen
the first posting in over an hour and I got a bounceback message from the
second attempt.  So here is the third...

I am having the hardest time setting a cookie.  I think it is actually in
testing for the form field.

Simple login application.
-User comes to page
-gets authorized
-If "remember me" is checked, set a cookie

Here is the code for setting the cookie.

<CFIF get_user.recordcount>
 <CFSET Session.current_user_id = get_user.userID>

 <!--- If "Remember Me" was checked, set a cookie on user's computer w/ User
ID.  --->
 <CFIF IsDefined("form.rememberme") IS "Yes">
 <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> alert("Hey set a cookie will you!")
</SCRIPT>   ----For testing of course
 <CFCOOKIE name="sID" value="#get_user.userID#" EXPIRES="NEVER">
 </CFIF>

The form field looks like this....
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="rememberme" VALUE="Yes"><FONT
face="Tahoma">&nbsp;Remember Me</FONT>

I have tried everything I can think of.   I have read 3 diferent examples of
this exact thing.  Could it be that I am using the cf4.5 svr that comes w/
cfstudio, and not on a real live server?  I know that some things do not
function properly on this version of the server software, but I don't know
which things.

Thanks
