If I set the maxAge to a huge value it would probably work, unfortunately its in seconds, it would be better if it was a date Now I ponder about the setPath By default it is null I am creating the cookie from the context/page of icrm/logon_check.jsp I am getting the cookies from icrm/logon.jsp icrm/logon.jsp does not seem to be recieving any cookies, and the getPath() i think is indicating the path that the browswer will send the cookie to what must I provide setPath() in order for it to do so? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
