When a user enters on the registration page I am setting cookies at the top of my html as follows:

<%Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica").Expires = Date+365
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica").Secure = FALSE
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("FirstName") = name1.value
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("LastName") = name.value
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("EmailAddress") = Session("NewUserEmail")


Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01A8)
Object required: 'name1'

My name1 is the name I assigned to the textbox.

What is the error looking for? What is the object?

looks like you are trying to use the text box value rather than posting it back to the server

I thought that is what you do when you set a cookie and define the fields from a textbox that you want carried over to other pages on the site?

Forgive my ignorance.

It sound like you want to use session variables rather than cookies.

here's the cookie stuff anyway


<html>
<head>

</head>

<BODY>

<form name="form1" method="post" action="cookie.asp">

<b>First Name:</b> <input name="FirstName" size="10" maxlength="10"><BR>
<b>Last Name:</b> <input name="LastName" size="10" maxlength="10"><BR>
<input type="submit" value="ok">

</form>

</BODY>
</html>


cookie.asp

<%@ Language=VBScript %>

<%Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica").Expires = Date+365
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica").Secure = FALSE
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("FirstName") = request("FirstName")
Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("LastName") = request("LastName")
'Response.Cookies("ReclaimAmerica")("EmailAddress") = Session("NewUserEmail")

%>
