inline frame cookie

[ParadoxMember]

Is it possible to set a cookie from an inline frame, and then access it on further pages? I have been trying to do this for some time no with no luck. I have been using cookies for a long time with relatively few problems until now. Does anyone have any words of wisdom for me? Thanks

I did find some stuff in the manual that said it has to do with the security settings on IE6, and it did give me a way to circumvent that with a warning that it was rather unethical.. does anyone know of any other way to do this?

thanks

I really have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm trying to send a cookie from an inline frame and its not working. I read somewhere that it has to do with the security settings of IE6, becuase it thinks its a third party cookie or somthing like that.

I also read that you can send a custom header before you set the cookie that will "take care" of this problem. I tried this and it worked, however I then went on to read that it was unethical because it disabled some security feature or somthing.

Can anyone tell me if there is a better way to do this? I just want to send a cookie from an inline frame. Thanks

Well, perhaps I don't understand because I don't know what an inline frame is...but how do you send a cookie to begin with?

an inline fame is a <iframe> hobo.

also a 3rd party cookie is loading your cookie on another website. you might not be able to set the cookie as the headers have already been sent. can't right remember on that one.

you might have to setup a P3P (Privacy Policy)

look at www.w3.org for more info. you will alos have to donwload a editor form IBM called "IBM P3P Privacy Policy Editor"
