Passing data from ASP to ASPX

[beanvonbaron]

Is there a way to pass data stored in a cookie from an ASP page to an aspx page?

Absolutely. Cookies are always fair game. In fact I've used cookies to pass data from ASPX <-> javascript in one case. The thing to be aware of though is you should obviously not pass "logged in or not?" type information in a cookie or any information that you would not want the user to see, unless you 1. have some means of strongly encrypting/decrypting the cookies and 2. that this can be done on the server side.

thanks.. fixed it...

I the underscore in the cookie name was being converted into something like %5 or something like that (just like a space = %20


cheers!
