    Unhappy

    i made a page with a form where you enter a value. This is used to pass as a querystring the fontsize for the next page, and to set the font size as a cookie for another page. Where's the mistake with the cookie? (the querystring works perfectly)

    the page that post the value
    --------
    <form name="form1" method="post" action="cookies.asp">
    <input type="text" name="carattere" size="3" maxlength="1">
    <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Invia">
    </form>
    --------
    the page that receive the value and use the querystring (works)
    --------
    <%
    dim idim
    idim=request("carattere")
    strdim = idim
    Response.Cookies("prova")("dimtesto")= idim
    Response.cookies("prova").Expires = date + 365%>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Untitled Document</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><font size="<%=strdim%>">
    Ciao Stronzone, questo coso dovrebbe variare ogni volta. Adesso vai alla prossima pagina
    <a href="cookies2.asp">prova</a> </font>

    </body>
    </html>
    --------
    the page that use the cookie
    --------
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Untitled Document</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    </head>

    <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><font size="<%request.cookies("prova")("dimtesto")%>">
    Adesso c'è questa pag. qua</font>
    </body>
    </html>
    ------
    the output is simply font size="".... as if my cookie as never been sent!
    P.S. Can i manage cookie with the pws or should i upload to a server on the web?

    PLZ help!!

    OR
    idim=request.querystring("carattere")

    strdim is used directly on the page and it works.
    idim is used to assign a value to a cookie and it doesn't work
    why?are cookies like ssi?
    It's allowed to assign a variable to a cookie, isn't it?

    i forgot.
    i used request("carattere") not request.form("carattere") because there are no querystring objects so the request can only be a form.
