adequate security and cookie information to the users who are refusing or
unable to accept cookies so they know why we require them. I prefer
setting CFID and CFTOKEN to a "session-only" cookie so that the session is
destroyed when the user closes their browser:
<CFCOOKIE NAME="CFID" VALUE="#CFID#">
<CFCOOKIE NAME="CFTOKEN" VALUE="#CFTOKEN#">
I then detect whether the user is able/willing to accept cookies, and
redirect them to an information page if they are not, using some
permutation of:
