Hi,
Cookies in asp.net[^]
Example on Cookies[^]

hi,
please check some information regarding cookies

Cookies:
Web applications can store small pieces of data in the client's Web browser by using cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data that is stored either in a text file on the client file system (if the cookie is persistent) or in memory in the client browser session (if the cookie is temporary). The most common use of cookies is to identify a single user as he or she visits multiple Web pages.

Reading and Writing Cookies:
A Web application creates a cookie by sending it to the client as a header in an HTTP response. The Web browser then submits the same cookie to the server with every new request.
Create a cookie -> add a value to the Response.Cookies HttpCookieCollection.
Read a cookie -> read values in Request.Cookies.
Example:

// Check if cookie exists, and display it if it does

if (Request.Cookies["lastVisit"] != null) // Encode the cookie in case the cookie contains client-side script Label1.Text = Server.HtmlEncode(Request.Cookies["lastVisit"].Value);

else Label1.Text = "No value defined";

// Define the cookie for the next visit Response.Cookies["lastVisit"].Value = DateTime.Now.ToString();Response.Cookies["lastVisit"].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);


If you do not define the Expires property, the browser stores it in memory and the cookie is lost if the user closes his or her browser.

To delete a cookie, overwrite the cookie and set an expiration date in the past. You can't directly delete cookies because they are stored on the client's computer.
Controlling the Cookie Scope: By default, browsers won't send a cookie to a Web site with a different hostname. You can control a cookie's scope to either limit the scope to a specific folder on the Web server or expand the scope to any server in a domain. To limit the scope of a cookie to a folder, set the Path property, as the following example demonstrates:

Example:

Response.Cookies["lastVisit"].Path = "/Application1";

Through this the scope is limited to the "/Application1" folder that is the browser submits the cookie to any page with in this folder and not to pages in other folders even if the folder is in the same server. We can expand the scope to a particular domain using the following statement:
Example:
Response.Cookies["lastVisit"].Domain = "Contoso";

Storing Multiple Values in a Cookie:
Though it depends on the browser, you typically can't store more than 20 cookies per site, and each cookie can be a maximum of 4 KB in length. To work around the 20-cookie limit, you can store multiple values in a cookie, as the following code demonstrates:
Example:

Response.Cookies["info"]["visit"].Value = DateTime.Now.ToString();

Response.Cookies["info"]["firstName"].Value = "Tony";

Response.Cookies["info"]["border"].Value = "blue";

Response.Cookies["info"].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);
