Thanks for the reply Michael.
I have tried all of these approaches and have not managed to retrieve the cookie I am looking for - in fact I can only see the ACTIVE4D_SESSIONID cookie.
I think the problem may be down to domains. Let me expand.
I have a client who already has a web sales system which I wrote in PHP using 4D via IC. All works lovely via my PHP server on the www.anotherdimension.co.uk domain. This system sets a Guest_ID cookie so we can see if the person has already visited the site before.
Now he is expanding and I am writing a new sales system (to deal with a new part of the business) which I am writing in Active4D (because it's lovely), but this will be running from his 4D Client machine on a different IP no.
What I need to do is to see if the Guest_ID cookie is there from both parts of the system which reside on different domains.
Maybe this is just impossible and I need to work round it.
Any ideas?
cheers Lisa

There are 3 ways to do this. request cookies - this returns and iterator and can be used like so: if(request cookies{"COOKIE_NAME"}#"") // Cookie is there else // Cookie isn't there end if
get request cookie - "" if not present, contents if present eg if(get request cookie("COOKIE_NAME") #"") // Cookie is there else // Cookie isn't there end if
or
array text($out_cookie_names;0) array text($out_cookie_values;0) get request cookies($out_cookie_names;$out_cookie_values) if(find in array($out_cookie_names;"COOKIE_NAME") # -1 ) // Cookie is there else // Cookie isn't there end if

Hiya,
I need to be able to see if a cookie has been previously set. The cookie may have been set by either Active4D or by PHP, but I don't think that would make a difference.
If I 'dump request cookies' I only get my ACTIVE4D_SESSIONID cookie. If
I 'dump response cookies' I don't get anything. How can I find out if a
particular cookie exists and what the value is?
cheers Lisa
