Setting a Cookie and Redirecting the Browser
Has anyone come up with a plausible way of setting a cookie and redirecting the browser from within a ColdFusion 4.01 template using HTTP headers (as opposed to META tag redirects)? Specifically, we're trying to redirect an image call from the browser. The image fails to load when it comes upon a HTTP "Refresh" header, and the "Location" header seems to negate the setting of the cookie. Benjamin S.

RE: Setting a Cookie and Redirecting the Browser
We can't use a META refresh because the template is being called from an image source.

Just a thought... You could CFHTTP the content of the desired forwarded page so that the cookie can set. I have done this once, a long time ago, and I remember it working.

RE: Setting a Cookie and Redirecting the Browser
Secure/Unsecure??? Depends on what content you are serving up. I personally would not authenticate using cookies, because they can be easily manipulated. I use cookies for tracking purposes only and client/session vars for mostly everything else. If the content is "sensitive", I would really recommend switching to session variables. If you are really uncomfortable using these variables, you can continue using cookies, however I would encrypt their loginID, either using something like #CFusion_Encrypt('#theID#' , 'theKey')#, I prefer this encryption technique rather than the Encrypt() function. You can use what you like.

Specifically, we're trying to redirect an image call from the browser. The image fails to load when it comes upon a HTTP "Refresh" header, and the "Location" header seems to negate the setting of the cookie. Benjamin S.

RE: Setting a Cookie and Redirecting the Browser

RE: Setting a Cookie and Redirecting the Browser
What about: if cookie exists do analysis to determine image cflocation to image url if cookie does not exist do any analysis cfcontent to distribute the image file This puts a little more load on CF but realistically you're only shipping a few k the first time from CF then the rest of the time from another source. --Doug -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
