Re: Test for Cookies

In IE | Tools | Internet Options | Security | Custom Level You'll find 2 items under Cookies - Allow cookies that are stored on your computer - Allow per-session cookies (not stored) Both haveing the options (enabled / prompt / disabled) The cookie test script is succesful if and only if "per-session" is enabled. Okay, my question is: Does the 2nd Cookie Option "Per Session" imply that "that as long as the browser(s) have not been closed down, that as long as any instance of IE is running, that we have infact NOT terminated a "Session" and a cookie which has been set in this session is available? No matter where the user browses to, the number of browser windows he opens, closes, jumps back and forth between (just as long as at least 1 instance of IE is running the entire time), is this "cookie session" still intact?" And what about NS? Karl ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian V Bonini" <brian@gfx.cncdsl.com> To: "Karl J.
