 I have created a dynamic site where I tried to save a lot of the dynamic
information in cookies.
 At any 1 time there could be about 25 cookies.  None of them are very
large, each holding a max of
 about 45 bytes.  This dynamic information is stuff like a cookie for the
main font color,  a cookie
 for the main domain url, etc.  These cookies are pulled up on every page.



  Cookies are limited to 20 per domain. The 21st cookie will cause the first
one to be purged. I
 believe that the max memory size for all of your site's cookies is 4k.

I was always led to believe the limit was 15 per domain, does anyone have a
definitive answer on this as I have never needed more than 2 so I have never
tested it?

it actually depends on your browser.  i think it was IE 4.x = 25, NS 4.x =
20.  i heard that IE was increasing the limit in 5.x, but i have no idea
what it is now.

On page 94 in "Mastering ColdFusion 4.0"- author: Arman Danesh, Kristin
Aileen Motlagh":
" A server can set only 20 cookies in a client browser with newer cookies
replacing older ones as this limit is crossed."

"Cookies have a length limit of 4,096 characters(4KB). This length includes
the value , name, and additional information such as the expiration date.
Effectively , this means the actual value stored  in the cookies needs to be
less than 4KB in length."

Sounds like you are exceeding the cookie limit... I think it's 20.

 Hello all,

 I have created a dynamic site where I tried to save a lot of the dynamic
information in cookies.  At any 1 time there could be about 25 cookies.
None of them are very large, each holding a max of about 45 bytes.  This
dynamic information is stuff like a cookie for the main font color,  a
cookie for the main domain url, etc.  These cookies are pulled up on every
page.

 I have error logic in my application.cfm to push to a second page and save
this information to an error file so that I can see the errors others have
received on the site.

 I seem to get the same error quite a lot and it is cookie no longer exist:
"ColdFusion was unable to determine the value of the parameter".  I am not
sure what causes something like this.  I only have one page where I reset
all of the cookies and that is when someone logoffs the site.  I also have
received the error and know for sure I did not hit the logogff before
receiving the error.

 Is there a reason why the cookies would suddenly dissappear?  Perhaps,
cookies being pushed out of the buffer when more cookies are saved?  Maybe
some virus?  Probably something I am doing but I have no idea what it is?

 Thanks in advance,

 kaigler
