[cfaussie] Re: Trying to write some session variables

[Stephen Bosworth]

This has been an issue since I can remember. Refer to:   http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18171.htm   The problem is that the cookie CFID/CFTOKEN cookie values are not being sent along with the cflocation request.  cflocation does not do a server side redirect, but rather sends the redirect instruction back to the browser to get it to perform it.     -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stephen Bosworth Application Development and Integration Communication and Information Services The University of Newcastle, Australia Phone: 02 4921 6574 Fax: 02 4921 7087 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2/02/2004 2:30:47 pm >>> Hi guys, I have a problem where I am specifying some default values in Application.cfm as follows: <cflock scope="session" type="exclusive" timeout="10">    <cfparam name="session.log_Access" default="0">    <cfparam name="session.log_ID" default="">    <cfparam name="session.log_Name" default=""> </cflock> I am then running some code when a user logs in which should, in theory, overwrite these values with the logged-in values: <cfoutput> <cfif qry_GetUserLogin.recordcount>    <cflock scope="session" type="exclusive" timeout="10">       <cfset session.log_Access = "#qry_GetUserLogin.AccessLevel#">       <cfset session.log_Name = "#qry_GetUserLogin.LoginName#">       <cfset session.log_ID = "#qry_GetUserLogin.ID#">       <cflocation url="" addtoken="no">    </cflock> <cfelse>     <cflocation url="" addtoken="no"> </cfif> </cfoutput> What I am getting, however, is that when I am returned to the home page I am not getting the new values in the session variables (I have some temporary code to output the values of these variables on the front page so I can monitor what's happening to them). The really strange thing is that I found if I remove the <cflocation> after I set the variables, then they take. Why is this? Surely the <cflocation> shouldn't actually take effect until it reaches that part of the code, should it? Cheers, Seona. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
