Looking for cookies?

[brett]

I'm doing this to get a listing of cookies:
HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies.AllKeys

and
HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies.AllKeys.ToString()

However, that only gives:

System.String[]

How can I get a listing of cookies sent by the client?

Thanks,
Brett

Just browse the array using a for or foreach loop. Here you are asking to
produce a string representation for the whole array so its just outputs its
type...

Thanks. That worked:
string allCookie = "";
foreach(string cookie in HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies)
allCookie += "\r\n" + cookie;

My site sets a cookie but I don't see it in the email I'm sending from
the site, which uses the above code. The only cookie I see is
ASP.NET_SessionId. I checked in IE privacy to see if the cookie had
been blocked/allowed. The site isn't listed there at all. I checked
under Tools | Internet Options | Settings | View Files for the
particular cookie. I have only five text files (cookies) listed and my
site isn't one of them.

Any ideas how I can get the cookie set on my site to see if it outputs
in the loop?

Thanks,
Brett

You need to first write cookie when responding first to the user request.
something like this :-

HttpCookie MyCookie = new HttpCookie("LastVisit");
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;

MyCookie.Value = now.ToString();
MyCookie.Expires = now.AddHours(1);

Response.Cookies.Add(MyCookie);

The cookie is actually set by a counter, which is a link in javascript
code to a JS file. I'm not setting the cookie. Is that something I
won't have access to? I guess that gets into extracting cookies from a
site other than my own, which is probably not allowed.

Thanks,
